They explore what it means to keep going when things fall apart, to hold onto\nconnections in a world that sometimes divides, and to figure out where we fit into the\nmachines and systems we find ourselves a part of.\n\"I wanted to end this album on a question mark,\" said Priddy \"as whilst I'd have hoped to\nhave it all figured out by the third album and my third decade, I've come to accept that\nperhaps part of being human is being a perpetual work in progress. Could this collection of\nsongs be enough? If it strikes a match and casts a little light for anyone who has ever felt\ntheir body falter, their love waver, or time slip through their fingers, then that's enough for\nme.\"\nGuests include singer\/songwriter Torres who duets on 'Madeleine' and Richard Walters who\nduets on 'I'm Always Willing'. Revered, alt folk multi-instrumentalist Ben Christophers\n(Natasha Khan, Guy Garvey and many more) features on most of the album's tracks.\nPriddy will take to the road in April\/May 2026 for a lengthy UK headline tour. \nA1.
