Idina Releases BEAST

Posted on July 21, 2023July 25, 2023 by Heather

Idina Menzel is letting out her inner beast in her new single, BEAST! She performed this track during her Capital Pride tour and it is definitely one of my favorites! Listen above or on your favorite digital music service.

BEAST Coming July 21!

Posted on July 10, 2023July 11, 2023 by Heather

Get ready to let out your inner BEAST, because Idina Menzel’s next single will be released on July 21! Pre-save/pre-add BEAST here.

If you were lucky enough to see Idina perform on her Pride tour, she performed it at each stop! She’s also been posting previews on her TikTok. It’s one of my favorites, so I’m excited to hear the studio version and have it on repeat this summer while we wait for Drama Queen on August 18! It’s also one of Idina’s favorite tracks:

“I love it. It’s kick ass, it’s aggressive. It’s about unleashing the beast inside us all. I just love the grooves, [it’s] got kind of like early ’80s vibe to it. I really enjoy performing it. I love blasting it in my car.”

The large version of the single cover is in the gallery:

Idina in London!

Posted on July 3, 2023July 3, 2023 by Heather

Idina Menzel wrapped up her Pride concert “tour” by making her way to London to perform at Pride in London and Heaven nightclub! If you’ve listened to or read any of her interviews over the last few weeks, you already know Heaven was one of the inspirations for her upcoming album! She didn’t attempt to stage dive (lol!) but it looked like she had a blast anyway.

During her Pride in London set, she was joined by Jake Shears, who co-wrote Dramatic with her and Jim Eliot. You can see videos from both events on my Pride Concert Youtube playlist.

Idina also did a ton of press! I added a bunch of videos to the DRAMA QUEEN playlist on Youtube and here are links to her print interviews:

Watermark Magazine // Huffington Post UK // Express UK // Ireland Live // Pink News // Metro UK // Attitude // ABC Australia

I also added photos of her outside Heart Radio Studios in London on Friday to the gallery:

And finally, photos of her at Wimbledon earlier today:
