Miya Folick has unleashed new single ‘Felicity’ ahead of her imminent third album

Miya Folick has shared new single ‘Felicity’, the final preview of her third album ‘Erotica Veronica’, which arrives on 28th February via Nettwerk.

‘Felicity’ marks a departure from the album’s other tracks, being the only song not originally written on acoustic guitar. The track was created in collaboration with Jared Solomon, incorporating layered synths and woodwinds alongside traditional instrumentation.

The song’s title references the definition of felicity as “finding appropriate expression for one’s thoughts,” which Folick explains holds significance for the album’s themes. “It’s a cornerstone of the album: putting language to how I feel, which I didn’t do for so long because I didn’t know it was a feeling I was allowed to have,” she says.

‘Erotica Veronica’ explores themes of desire and identity, with Folick noting, “The album is about being queer within a heteronormative relationship structure and within a heteronormative society, but it’s also just about desire and eroticism in general. I don’t think we give each other enough room to explore freely and figure out our own right paths.”

The self-produced album features contributions from Sam KS as co-producer and drummer, alongside musicians Meg Duffy, Waylon Rector, Greg Uhlmann, and Pat Kelly.
