SHELTER TIDE
AERI (she/they) is an alt-pop singer-songwriter who exposes inner dialogues often invisible or silenced, in hopes to foster collective tenderness.
She recently released her second body of work, Shelter Tide, a 7-song EP that wades in the unknown, unending cycles and patterns and search for safety—an atmospheric journey of overflow, depletion and possibility.
“Sometimes the light curves through the sky, peeling between the clouds in such a way that it becomes a heavenly spotlight, giving you pause and beckoning you to look up and listen. AERI may be the physical embodiment of such a moment.”

“AERI’s prowess as a songwriter is her ability to become the stream of consciousness that tends to run nonlinearly through one’s head while sitting in the subway, biking across the city, or taking the long walk to one’s destination. Real-time moments blur together as one existentially anguishes over the same details a thousand times over on where it all went wrong and where it all went right.”

“Dripping with vibrance of hurt and passion — raw and invigoratingly universal.”
