QJB (Quentin John Burton)
#Be Radical: Become The Artist
#Dream Then Change
QJB / Quentin John Burton (aka No Prima Donnas) is a songwriter, artist and musician mostly in the alternative pop / rock genre. He writes songs about mind, people, feelings and the shadows.
He is currently working on solo material for release in 2023 and beyond. He is also band leader for the Bowie covers band The Genius of David Bowie (GoDBowie) as well as one half of art-rockers The Real King(s) of Spain (RKoS).
His songwriting captures the essence of QJB. There is a playful humour, taking the art and music seriously, but never too seriously. There are passion, commitment to humanism, radical, progressive and related social causes, a deep interest in people, their minds and feelings. He has an understanding of how art and music saves mental health and lives, because they saved his. He shares a fascination with the subconscious and the darker parts of our minds with writing partner Doc Satori and they explore this within the The Real King(s) of Spain work. A Bowie fan from his early playing years he takes a keen interest in all things Bowie via his group The Genius of David Bowie (GoDBowie).
He has wanted to be a full professional musician since his early teens. That dream is finally coming true.
In 2020 Q started writing on his own again post The Real King(s) of Spain. Working from his own project ‘SongSmith Studios’ currently located near Valencia, Spain, Q has various writing projects, leading The Genius of David Bowie and still releasing material with The Real King(s) of Spain. He is a member of Becoming the Artist Community run by Bernii Mac and an alumni and active member of Radical Songwriters Academy run by Rosie Bans as well as having a presence in Nashville, Tennessee via the Song Chaser community.
