Sarah Beatty – Bandit Queen

| Sarah Beatty - Bandit Queen |
Release Date: Out Now
This is a feisty little tune
befitting its subject matter, a story about a 19th century horse
rustler and bank robber of the female persuasion. ‘Bandit Queen’ has a bluesy
groove on the acoustic but Beatty’s voice skips and soars with a style that is
somewhere between pop and jazz (pazz perhaps). Lyrically, this is pure Laura
Marling meets Joan Baez story telling at it’s very best – “I’m the baddest
bandit queen you did ever see” and “I’ve got a brain between these legs”. Sarah
Beatty hails from Hamilton in Canada but the dry, dusty swagger behind this
tune is pure mid-west America if ever I heard it. Now chew the cork out of a
bottle of sarsaparilla and strap this on to your ears.
