Vérité with Gatlin
The Love You Forever Tour
As an independent artist, Vérité has always created outside of traditional structures. A prolific and "spellbinding" (NPR) artist, songwriter, producer and performer, her independently released albums, EPs and singles have garnered over 350M+ streams. Her next era of exploration brings us, Love You Forever, a record about loving someone so much you murder them and drag their body into a lake. That's the most literal interpretation of the concept and world built around the album to pad the hard corners of two years sitting with past lives while cracking oneself open and learning how to be fully present and vulnerable. It blatantly searches for a reciprocation and longs for a recognition that never comes. This plays out in the visuals with the dynamic between Vérité and her counterpart, exploring various intimate scenes with his hands tied and his identity obscured. This is a record that's meant to be seen, heard and experienced viscerally in real life.

VÉRITÉ began her music career while working full-time as a waitress at Applebee's in Times Square. Over the course of nearly two years, she crafted the 'Echo EP,' a stunning debut which showcased her unique brand of poignant, emotionally intense alt-pop. SPIN praised her "incredibly strong club-ready cuts," naming her one of five new artists to watch, while BuzzFeed hailed lead single "Strange Enough" as one of the best songs of the summer. Upon its release, the track hit #1 most viral on Twitter and earned her the #1 spot on Hype Machine, along with additional love from Harper's Bazaar, Refinery29, Idolator, and more. She followed it up with the 'Sentiment' EP, which TIME called "gorgeous," with "complex electronic arrangements" and "rich and ethereal vocals."
