Recorded at Dreamland Studios (a literal converted church) in 2017, this long-out-of-print record is now back in print on both vinyl (complete with insert featuring the lyrics), and for the first time, CD formats. The Bobby Lees’ Beauty Pageant overflows with the kind of raw punk energy you can only bottle once—when you’re young enough to play every chord like it might be your last.
The Bobby Lees will appear on Jason Momoa’s upcoming season of “On The Roam” on HBO-Max.
The Bobby Lees’ reissued debut album Beauty Pageant is out now on streaming & digital platforms and will be available on May 30th on vinyl and CD via Alive Naturalsound Records. Click here to order the Autographed Set with Poster, Insert & limited edition Bubblegum Pink Vinyl.
Here’s what critics have been saying about The Bobby Lees:
“Primal, rural, feral, rock’n’roll.” – LOUDER THAN WAR
“Fronted by Sam Quartin, whose vocal charisma channels some of the preposterous intensity of the Alan Vega/Cave/Cramps lineage, the band is an explosion of intense high-concept, low-budget rock’n’roll.” – UNCUT
“… oozing with sex, sweat and joyful abandon. It’s a raucous ride from beginning to end. Cover to cover, this thing’s got you by the short hairs. Quartin is the star and a light that you can’t seem to blink out, but the whole band is a well-oiled and furious blues-punk machine.” – POPMATTERS
“Storming to the scene with a howling sense of rebellion and nonconformity.” – ALTERNATIVE PRESS
“… energetic, gritty and passionate” – THE BIG TAKEOVER MAGAZINE
“The Bobby Lees show they’ve got the chops and the weirdness to refresh vintage rock, punk, and without the commercialism that has plagued other prominent garage bands of their generation.” – CHICAGO READER
