Raised in Hollywood and inspired by 60s/70s rock, country and soul, Pearl creates a unique, spellbinding flavour of indie-pop. Produced by Lewis Pesacov and mixed by Michael Rault in Joshua Tree, Desert Queen finds Pearl Charles in stunning form. Lush, Stax-like arrangements support her trademark rock solid songwriting making this gorgeous record an essential for 2025. "As if Tom Petty were riding shotgun, Charles and band capture a certain Southern California essence" - LA TIMES "Bursting with blues-rock and blissed-out psychedelia" - PITCHFORK
