The Anti-Queens are a trio of female powerhouse musicians reigning from Toronto, Canada. Singer/guitarist Emily Bones, bassist Mary Deth and drummer Lindsay Bird have managed to fuse 90's garage rock with a more modern rock/punk. Think The Runaways and Veruca Salt with a touch of The Distillers. The Anti-Queens put on an explosively energetic set which in turn will have their melodically infectious songs engraved into your head and have you singing for weeks. The single "Noushi," off the Grow Up / Stay Young EP (set for release June, 2013) saw praise from Canadian Artist's Bif Naked, Sum 41 and Walk Off The Earth. It also managed to catch the ears and eyes of Laura Jane Grace (formally Tom Gabel) of Against Me! "The Anti-Queens put on an explosive show at the Bovine, blending grungy rock with a hint of punk. The dynamic on stage was great to watch, you can tell that there’s a great friendship between the girls and that only makes their essence all that stronger." -City Girl Scapes review from NXNE 2013 "Raw and hard, they are a borderline punk sounding hard rocking female band that pleased the packed Bovine with both their supercharged music and their likeable on stage persona. Really good set that proved a very good choice at this time slot." -T Mak World's review from NXNE 2013 2013 has started off with a bang for The Anti-Queens and with a long list of shows, festivals and tours on the rise these girls are set to carve out a story all their own.
