Monki releases new single, 'Queen Of Hearts'

Monki‘s second single of 2020 is out now.

“Queen Of Hearts,” out on her own &Friends label, is an ’80s-inspired, synth-heavy club track in a similar spirit to “I’m Free To Love You,” which dropped in April.

Monki, real name Lucy Monkman, is a Defected Radio show regular, former BBC Radio 1 host—the first East Asian woman to host a show on the network—and has released tracks on the Defected, Hottrax and Toolroom labels.

A former football player for Dulwich Hamlet FC, Monkman also won the Best British Sports Podcast Awards 2020 for her podcasting work about the Women’s World Cup (she’s appeared on BT Sport and Defected’s Champion League).
