When the indie-pop duo artist, Queen Anne, releases a song, a mood, a moment, and an atmosphere that stays with you long after the note ends. The same goes for the material on their new single, “Let’s Dance.” An interplay of shimmering synths, threaded over an undercurrent of deep, dark, eerie pop energy, the track fuses the lush melodicism of ’80s pop with the razor-sharp sonic edge and post-modern production.
Singer-songwriter Katie Silverman and writer/producer Sandy Chila make up Queen Anne, who have established a sonic output that is as nostalgic as it is forward-thinking. “Let’s Dance” is a prime example of that. Silverman’s vocals are through crystalline clarity, and Chila’s production drives it with an irresistibly addictive pulse.
At its core, “Let’s Dance” is a movement on the dance floor, but also letting go into the music, letting it wash over you, and experiencing freedom in the sound. There’s a clear chemistry between the two, with each lyric and beat feeling deliberate, layered, and developed to build an album that feels lush and fully realized.
With indie-pop in its far-reaching influence, Queen Anne is solidifying itself as a top storyteller. The mix of ethereal textures, insidiously catchy hooks, and moody undertones on "Let's Dance" leaves the listener spinning this one back both as part of a late-night playlist as well as up on the wall amongst your DJ gear's supporting cast.
