An Australian pop icon now based in Paris, she fuses disco, electronic music and futuristic glamour into something that feels tailor\u2011made for queer nightlife: high\u2011camp, hyper\u2011feminine, emotionally charged and a little bit dangerous.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A jawbreaker in pop form<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her second album,&nbsp;<em>JAWBREAKER<\/em>, takes its name from the cult candy \u2013 and the metaphor fits. Like the sweet, Quealy\u2019s music is glossy, colourful and instantly addictive, but there\u2019s a hardness underneath, a bite that keeps everything from becoming too smooth. Where her first record&nbsp;<em>Blonde Venus<\/em>&nbsp;(2023) explored explosive techno\u2011pop and underground experimentation,&nbsp;<em>JAWBREAKER<\/em>&nbsp;pushes her into a brighter, more luxurious dance\u2011pop universe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sam Quealy- Watch Me Now  (Queen of the Night)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PWHqwoadd6c?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The songs layer lush disco grooves with airy, celestial melodies, capturing the chaotic energy of the world around her without losing a sense of joy. Quealy is constantly walking a tightrope between sensitivity and subversion, excess and precision, which is exactly why her work resonates so strongly with LGBTQ+ listeners who live in that same tension every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Crafted between home studio and legend<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Created with her long\u2011time collaborator Marlon Magn\u00e9e (co\u2011founder of French band La Femme),&nbsp;<em>JAWBREAKER<\/em>&nbsp;was born somewhere between DIY intimacy and mythic history. Parts of the album were built in their home studio, others at the legendary Studio Ferber in Paris, where Serge Gainsbourg recorded in the 1970s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This time, Quealy leaned hard into live instrumentation to carve out a more sumptuous, radiant sound. If&nbsp;<em>Blonde Venus<\/em>&nbsp;felt like discovering a secret rave in a basement,&nbsp;<em>JAWBREAKER<\/em>&nbsp;is more like walking into a neon\u2011lit ballroom filled with mirrors, strings, and synths that glow. She has described her debut as a space of pure experimentation, niche and underground; with this new record, she keeps that rebellious DNA but wraps it in something bigger, more cinematic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sam Quealy \u2014 Londontown (Official Music Video)\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TC1oTT-ZNcQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A drag\u2011coded, hyper\u2011femme stage animal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On stage, Sam Quealy becomes a kind of pop cyborg: part masculine energy, part drag\u2011level hyper\u2011femininity. She has said that her performance persona feels like a caricature of womanhood \u2013 full of wigs, towering heels and exaggerated gestures \u2013 but beneath the excess there is a very real, very sincere presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s a combination many queer and trans fans recognise instantly. The way she occupies that \u201ctoo much\u201d space, turning it into power instead of shame, speaks to the same impulse that has always animated queer performance and drag: the right to exaggerate, to play, to be unreal in order to get closer to something emotionally true. Her shows are not just concerts; they\u2019re a kind of permission slip to be loud, glamorous and vulnerable all at once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Songs of desire, chaos and self\u2011invention<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the heart of Quealy\u2019s work are songs about desire, passion and self\u2011assertion. She doesn\u2019t pretend to have neat answers to the chaos she sings about, but she does insist on the right to feel everything \u2013 and to dance through it. That insistence makes her especially compelling for LGBTQ+ audiences, who are used to navigating worlds that demand we shrink ourselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In&nbsp;<em>JAWBREAKER<\/em>, the collision of glossy production and emotional intensity mirrors the way many queer people build themselves: layering beauty and armour, softness and sharp edges, humour and pain. Sam Quealy turns that process into sound and movement, giving us a heroine who is both pop fantasy and deeply human.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"852\" height=\"852\" src=\"https:\/\/ket.brussels\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Capture-decran-2026-02-10-132612.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-51247\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ket.brussels\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Capture-decran-2026-02-10-132612.jpg 852w, https:\/\/ket.brussels\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Capture-decran-2026-02-10-132612-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ket.brussels\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Capture-decran-2026-02-10-132612-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/ket.brussels\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Capture-decran-2026-02-10-132612-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ket.brussels\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Capture-decran-2026-02-10-132612-12x12.jpg 12w, https:\/\/ket.brussels\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Capture-decran-2026-02-10-132612-50x50.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 852px) 100vw, 852px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If you\u2019re going to see her at Botanique<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/botanique.be\/fr\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/botanique.be\/fr\">Catching Sam Quealy live at Botanique on Wednesday, 25 February 2026<\/a>, is stepping into her universe for real: doors open at 19:30, but the transformation starts much earlier, in the way the crowd dresses, gathers and anticipates.
