Katherine Priddy – Secrets Still Remain

Katherine Priddy wrote “Secrets Still Remain” as a theme tune for BBC Radio 4’s “Uncanny Cold Cases” podcast, and you can hear that job description in every choice she makes. This isn’t a song built for radio rotation. It’s built to sit under a story about things that never got solved, and it does that job well.

Cooking Vinyl put this out as a standalone single, tied directly to the podcast rather than any album cycle, which makes sense given how purpose-built it feels. I’d take a whole record of Priddy writing for other people’s ghost stories.
