Small Shake, has dropped new single “Veruca”, the track is off Seattle artist and project of Aarin Wright’s debut EP Platonics out August 22). “Funny enough, I wrote “Veruca” when I was desperate to share a particularly juicy piece of music industry gossip,” shares Wright. “I knew my former confidant, my former friend, would revel in the story. I felt her absence stronger than ever, but had to laugh at the circumstances that had me so worked up. I conjured a future where we would be connected again, and could fill in the gaps of all we’d missed.” “Veruca” follows previous singles “Lucky” and “Still Too Soon.”

written during the native Seattleite’s seven years in that city’s music scene, the EP’s rich blend of expansive and lo-fi sound was intimately shaped by the collaboration with LA-based producer Andrew Pelletier (Fur Trader), and mastered by Patrick Damphier (The Mynabirds, Jessica Lea Mayfield, Judy Blank).

Along with the track, is a music video, directed Mia Gualtieri off the coast of the Channel Islands. Gualtieri shares: “One of my great fears was looking into the abyss of deep water, but a recent dive trip with friends allowed me to face it head on. After a couple dives and seeing the bright orange Garibaldi fish, my lifelong phobia started to dissipate. I wanted to visually sum up my experience of facing the ‘dark menacing water,’ and ‘Veruca’ felt like a very serendipitous way to do so.”
