Vancouver Singer-Songwriter Norine Braun Releases New Single 'Eye of the Hurricane'
Norine Braun, the acclaimed singer-songwriter and recording artist, announces the release of her powerful new single, 'Eye of the Hurricane'. Known for her soulful vocals, thought-provoking lyrics, and versatility across multiple genres, Braun's latest song captures the resilience of the human spirit in the face of chaos with her eerily prophetic lyrics. Inspired by a real-life story from Sarasota, Florida, during Hurricane Milton and just before the US election in October 2024. 'Eye of the Hurricane' is a cinematic, alternative track that brings listeners directly into the surreal experience of sitting in the still centre of a devastating storm. The song is based on a text exchange Braun had with a close friend sheltering in place with her husband and friends, sipping wine while waiting for the hurricane to pass. 'It was compelling and surreal to be so far apart and yet vicariously experience this incredible event,' Braun explains. 'My friend's calmness and humour sitting literally in the eye of the hurricane struck a chord, and I knew I had to capture that moment in song.' The single reunites Braun with producer Adam Popowitz, who has worked on her last seven albums, including her recent concept album, Journey Toward Wholeness. Together, the duo recorded 'Eye of the Hurricane' in a single day, layering Braun's evocative storytelling with atmospheric instrumentation to create a track that's as haunting as it is uplifting. "Eye of the Hurricane": A Universal Song of Resilience The upcoming single is poised to resonate with listeners across the globe. 'Eye of the Hurricane' is more than a story about weathering a literal storm—it's a metaphor for the quiet strength and connection people find in moments of uncertainty. With its cinematic production and Braun's signature soulful vocals, the track promises to captivate audiences and continue her legacy of deeply authentic artistry. An Award-Winning Artist with a Prolific Legacy Norine Braun's music career spans over two decades, with 14 albums that explore themes of the environment, identity, heritage, and the universal journey of life. During the pandemic, Braun created three albums, including December Falls, which reached #13 on the Canadian Roots Music Report's Top 100 Christmas Albums, and Songs For Trees, praised by The Vancouver Sun as "one of 5 albums you need to hear" in 2022. This project was supported by prestigious grants from the Canada Council for the Arts, First Peoples' Cultural Council, and FACTOR. Braun's latest full-length album also supported by a First Peoples' Cultural Council award. Journey Toward Wholeness, released in 2024, is a deeply personal concept album that explores her life as an adoptee, her discovery of her father and her Métis lineage and heritage. The record showcases Braun's ability to weave intimate storytelling with dynamic, groove-based roots music, solidifying her reputation as one of Vancouver's most innovative artists. Release Details 'Eye of the Hurricane' will be available on all major streaming platforms on February 21, 2025.
