Miya Folick has announced her new album 'Erotica Veronica'

Miya Folick has announced her new album 'Erotica Veronica', set for release on 28th February via Nettwerk.

The LA-based vocalist and songwriter's self-produced album features the lead single 'Erotica', which arrives alongside a video directed by Antonio Marziale.

"'Erotica' is a song about fantasy and pleasure - It's not just about sex, it's about a richness of experience, a playfulness, a connection, an open approach to each day," Folick explains. "I think that we're fed rules about what an appropriate fantasy looks like, especially when you're coupled. Our culture is so puritanical in that way. But I think that it's important for me to retain my autonomy of thought, and truthfully sharing my fantasies is an act of tenderness and intimacy."

Speaking about the album's themes, she adds: "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 album features contributions from Sam KS as co-producer and drummer, alongside Meg Duffy, Waylon Rector, Greg Uhlmann on guitar, and Pat Kelly on bass.
