tornado

Not all chaos means destruction. Aria Fenix beautifully channels the feeling of unexpected love—the kind that shakes our ground when we least expect it—in her new single, “tornado.”

She’s pop country. She’s electrifying. And she’s Colombian. Aria Fenix delivers a refreshing, catchy Spanglish track featuring all her signature elements: a blend of acoustic and pedal steel guitars, fun and fresh beats reflecting her vibrant roots, playful vocal effects, choral-like background vocals, and piano—honoring the instrument on which the song was originally written during a rainy lockdown night back in 2020.

Inspired by the sound of the pouring storm, the artist felt a connection between the raging power of nature and being swept off your feet by unexpected love. “tornado” was later completed in a co-writing session with Billboard Top-10 charting artist/songwriter Rachel Siegel and produced by multi-nominated country-pop Latino producer Stefano Manrique.

The artist—who has been featured on Spotify’s “New Music Friday Country,” “Country Latino,” Apple Music’s “New in Country,” Hot Tracks US, and more—reflects on the lyrics:

“Sometimes we are reluctant to a situation because it’s unfolding in a different way for us. And sometimes love strikes you right after you said ‘I’m done with dating’… It often happens that when we are least looking for something, it finds us. That’s the beautiful way of life.” – Aria on the inspiration for “tornado.”
