Katherine Priddy, a British singer-songwriter, is back with a new single called "Hurricane." It debuted on BBC Radio 6 Music with Craig Charles. The song is the third single from her upcoming album "These Frightening Machines." It shows a new side of Priddy's music that is part groovy, part mischievous, and downright catchy.
Rob Ellis made "Hurricane," which is different from Priddy's usual sound. It has a more playful, rhythm-driven energy. The song came from a real storm, it was written while the writer was hiding from a tornado in Nashville. The sense of joy that comes from that storm is in every beat. There is a real sense of fun here, a lift that comes after the holidays and is both surprising and refreshing.
Jay Bartlett directed the music video for the song. In it, Priddy goes from epic backdrops to two of her favorite pubs, inviting friends and family to join her for a warm, communal vibe. The visuals match the song's infectious energy: they're relaxed, happy, and grounded in real human connection. It's as much a celebration of friendship as it is of music. After the singles "Frightening Machines" and "Matches," "Hurricane" keeps the excitement going for "These Frightening Machines," which will come through Cooking Vinyl. The song hints that Priddy's third studio album could be her most daring yet, combining witty lyrics with fun experimentation.
"Hurricane" is a small whirlwind all on its own, bright, catchy, and completely irresistible. Katherine Priddy shows that she isn't afraid to change her sound while still keeping the warmth and humor that have always been a part of her music.
