".. at the top of her game"
Tom Robinson, BBC 6Music,
Me for Queen aka Mary Erskine is inspired by people and their stories. Growing up feral in rural Fife, Scotland in a big old house near the sea, she started writing songs when she was 13, around the same time that she started dressing herself.
With a voice often likened to Carole King and Regina Spektor, a classical piano training, and influences ranging from Björk to Chopin, Me for Queen – the creative alias of Mary Erskine – is rapidly winning acclaim for her beguiling ‘soul-folk’ songcraft.
A warm and engaging live performer, she was invited as musical guest on the Guilty Feminist podcast UK tour in 2019. 2020 saw the release of an EP collaboration with Nashville artist, Alva Leigh, around the theme of motherhood and making.
Teaming up for a 2nd time with Jim Wallis at Bella Union Studios, her new album, Microclimate, is set for release in early 2023. The record, tracked almost entirely in Erskine's living room, charts a turbulent period for the singer-songwriter and marks a musical evolution. A collection of songs about lockdown, motherhood, grief and much more, Microclimate sees Erskine moving towards a more ambitious, electronic sound; in turns meditative, joyful then vulnerable, underpinned by resilience.
