Kezar Celebrates the Divine Strength of Women with New Anthem "Don't Touch The Queen"
/San Francisco indie pop band Kezar has been delivering feel-good pop tunes ever since making their official debut this past January.
Last month, Kezar dropped their latest bop “Don’t Touch The Queen,” which was inspired by an incident frontman Jack Mosbacher witnessed at a club. “I was speaking to a woman when a drunk idiot stumbled up and groped her. Without hesitating, she punched him directly in the face. As he gasped for air, she said: ‘Uh uh. Don’t touch the queen.’ I immediately asked her if I could write a song about it - she was kind enough to say yes.”
The result is an anthemic new hit that celebrates women and their extraordinary divine strength, and its message is made even more powerful by its accompanying music video, which was brought to fruition by an entirely female production/creative team led by director Sarah Wilson Thacker.
“Don’t Touch The Queen” unites a variety of women of all shapes, sizes and ethnicities, highlighting the stories of the Director of the Multicultural Engagement and Inclusion Initiative at Google, a plus-size fashion model and designer, a film director, cancer survivor, stay-at-home mother, sexual assault survivor, and a transgender activist. “What these women made with my song is so beautiful and so much more powerful than anything I could have done myself,” Mosbacher said. “The all-female creative team showed seven real women living in their normal daily lives. And then, we dressed them like what they really are: tough, brilliant, fearless, adversity-overcoming queens.”
