Prima Queen have released the title track of their upcoming debut album.
With 'The Prize' scheduled to arrive on April 25 via Submarine Cat Records, the melodic indie-pop song follows on from the group's autumn singles Fool and Ugly.
Recorded at London's Angelica Studios in late 2023 with producer Steph Marziano, the album draws on the band's onstage experiences over the last year while on the road with Olivia Dean, Wet Leg and Whitney. Bandleaders Louise Macphail and Kristin McFadden said:
"Writing ‘The Prize’ felt kind of magical – we thought we had finished the album but this song suddenly came to us while we were writing in the studio with our producer Steph (Marziano) and we knew it had to be the album title-track. It felt like it tied all the other songs together in a really special way. It’s a song to remind you that YOU’RE THE PRIZE which is easy to forget sometimes!"
Having supported Everything Everything across the UK in December, Prima Queen will embark on their biggest headline tour in the spring, which includes a show at London's Islington Assembly Hall on May 22 as part of Footsteps music festival. They'll also support The Maccabees at All Points East in London's Victoria Park on August 24. Tickets are on sale now.
