Antoinette & The King's Men Make a Name with "No Name"

In case anyone had doubts about Antoinette's art, leave them at the door.  A series of new demos are here to blow away your incredulity with the power of melody.  No Name, originally posted on Soundcloud 2 weeks ago, proves that Antoinette is committed to developing her sound & her story.  As we pointed out in our last post on Antoinette, her music evokes memories of Natalie Merchant's breakthrough music of the 1990s.  No Name is further marked by precocious wisdom & an uncanny understanding of lyricism.  Even more impressive than the lyrics, however, is the level of authority with which Antoinette crafts her songs.   Who else can sing with authority on the nature of life, love & anonymity?

No Name highlights the fearlessness of Antoinette's character.  Where will she venture next?

Antoinette + the Kings Men is a musical and artistic project by a talented, exploratory woman from the British Isles. Antoinette, a character who personifies "the madness within each and every one of us," pens experimental POP that makes you weep. Her demos unfold in chronological order, developing a very personal, relatable, & modern fable.

This music is extraordinarily original. The only comparison that comes to mind is Natalie Merchant's equally confessional 1995 Tigerlily album. But one of the most important differences between Antoinette & other established POP acts is the fact that the Kings Men are a true community. They are in constant communication, creating fan art and promotional videos, & supporting one another through social media. Each and every fan is as unique as the artist herself.

For more of Antoinette's music, check out her Soundcloud for demos as candid and unconventional as the early work of Marina and the Diamonds. Our favorite is the mellow & melodic Miaow Or Never. Listen below:
