Right before embarking on their upcoming North American tour alongside Imminence and Dying Wish, Portugal’s GAEREA unveil their new standalone track, “Shallow”. Atmospheric, introspective, and deeply emotive, the song arrives just as the days grow shorter, perfectly capturing the melancholy of the season.
 
The band comments: “‘Shallow’ was written on the edge where depression and clarity briefly meet in an endless dance. It is a song about hoping for a brighter day while sinking deeper into the dark sheets of self-loathing. One of the most experimental tracks GAEREA have ever created, it gave rise to extensive vocal and orchestral experimentation and serves as a reflection of what GAEREA has become throughout ten years of relentless creativity, touring, and complete commitment to our true selves.”
 
But GAEREA did not want to stop there. Inspired by the song’s emotional depth and expansive atmosphere, the band invited several artists from vastly different creative backgrounds to reinterpret “Shallow” through their own artistic lens:
The accompanying video for the acoustic version features London-based cellist and composer Jo Quail, whose haunting performance adds an even more somber and cinematic dimension to the track. Watch it here: https://youtu.be/9vnFWwcRg5g

Meanwhile, renowned electronic artist Paranormal Attack deconstructs the original composition and rebuilds it as a volatile, genre-defying remix, while Juan L. Otaiza distills the song’s essence into a dark and deeply evocative piano interpretation.
 
With these collaborations, GAEREA also sought to shine a spotlight on Portugal’s rich creative community. Despite the country’s often-overlooked presence on the music map, the band wanted to celebrate and support some of the remarkable talents in and around their homeland.

Over the past 18 months, GAEREA have remained relentlessly active. In addition to releasing their critically acclaimed latest album, “Loss”, the band has toured extensively alongside Orbit Culture, appeared at numerous European festivals, completed a tour of Australia, and performed in Japan for the very first time. Now, they are preparing to bring their acclaimed live show and the songs from “Coma” to North American audiences as part of their upcoming run with Imminence and Dying Wish.
