Prize [CD]

Candid, involving and full of character, Prima Queen's music has become a world unto itself. The songs of Louise Macphail and Kristin McFadden play like a love letter to the radical power of friendship; to the fans who have reveled in the band's bitingly charismatic storytelling. Listening to their glorious debut LP The Prize (due spring 2025 via Submarine Cat Records), you want to crawl up inside all of it's effusive, empathic melodies and bathe in the warmth of the enviable bond at the record's core.
