In the year of the fire horse - a rare astrological alignment of energy that encourages incremental progress and trusting your instincts - Louise Macphail and Kristin McFadden are backing themselves and riding into an assured new era of Prima Queen. Following on from the rawly honest lyrics and richly intertwined songwriting of 2025 debut album The Prize, which earned them a Top 10 on the UK Independent Charts and support slots with The Maccabees and Bombay Bicycle Club, second album A Touch of Divine’s bold moves are indicative of a band who’ve relaxed into themselves and the multiplicities of who they are. A Touch of Divine, nods McFadden, “is about learning about yourself, growing within yourself, and becoming the self that you want to be”. On its cover, its authors are pictured on a motorbike - “literally a fire horse,” grins Macphail - heading into their future. It might not all be laid out, because nothing ever is, but the two friends are embracing the journey and inviting everyone along for the ride.
