British Indian rock artist Pryti has released her latest single ‘Teardrops’, a moving track about coming to terms with things you can’t change. We’re excited to be premiering the lyric video for ‘Teardrops’ out today.

“I’m Hindu and it was really nice to incorporate my faith into this song,” says Pryti. “Shani is Saturn the taskmaster who tests you and judges you on your actions and Shiva is the Hindu God.”

Pryti has already won attention and praise from the likes of Kerrang!, Rock Sound, New Noise, and was recently named by Rolling Stone India as a ‘Global Artist To Watch’. With her music being the perfect blend of distorted guitar tones and emotive melodies, it’s no surprise she’s on the radar of top music press - we’ll certainly be keeping an eye on her career and can’t wait for the album to drop.

Pryti releases ‘Teardrops’ ahead of her forthcoming album ‘Searching for Now, Lost in Again’ out on 11 November via her own label Welcome To Pariahville Records.
