Donate to support families affected by the crisis in Ukraine ➔ Carmody Releases New Song “Hurricane”
London-based singer-songwriter Jessica Carmody Nathan, aka Carmody released a new song “Hurricane” from her upcoming debut album “Imperfect Constellations” on March 30, 2022.
She co-wrote and co-produced the song with Avi Barath and Calum Duncan.
The song is inspired by my grandmother. “My Grandma once told me that she doesn't dream, and that if she does, it's not in colour. I was just like wow, that line has to go in a song,” Carmody explained. “We have a strange relationship, because she's quite a difficult, but very loveable woman. She's quite rude, she's really crass, she's got a lot of love but she can't often feel it. It's about me trying to get through to her, but also recognising that I feel like I am quite like her. I wouldn't call it depression, but I struggle with sadness, and there's a lot of sadness that she's had in her family that she's just carried. That hurricane feeling; I feel like I carry some of that too.”- She continued, “I am very close to my grandmother, she is the matriarch of our family and the thread that holds us all together. She looked after me a lot when I was younger and taught me how to sing. She is quite an unusual character. I think she struggles to live in the present and acknowledge the love that orbits around her, we are quite similar in this respect. This track explores my frustration with her, and with myself, to appreciate the things we do have, rather than what we've lost.”
The debut album comprises 12-track, featuring guest appearance from Tom Misch. It is set to be released on July 6, 2022 via Young Poet. -
