Today, Montreal-based multi-instrumentalist and producer Ouri shares the new song "Felicity". Accompanied by vocalist Antony Carle, the track highlights Ouri's entrancing soundscapes weaving strings with synths while the two artists harmonize together. Ouri shares about the track, "Despite the superficial and existential hazards, you can always find solace if you accept to dive into the present, in your own flesh, and let your brain disconnect with the help of gorgeous melodies. 'Felicity' is a summer ballad for your hot & late summer nights."
The new offering follows Ouri's tracks "Too Fast No Pain" featuring mobilegirl and "Shape of It", as well as Ouri's joint project with Helena Deland, Hildegard, that received widespread critical acclaim with Pitchfork praising as "pure creative symbiosis" and The FADER describing as, "a hypnotic composition that ebbs in and out of darkness, mining strength in synchronicity."

MORE ABOUT OURI
Ourielle Auvé, known professionally as Ouri, grew up in France and moved to Montreal at the age of 16 with dreams of becoming a composer. As Ouri developed her compositional ability, as well as her production and vocal chops, she integrated herself with late-night DJ sets in Montreal's underground rave scene and was eventually selected to take part in Red Bull Music Academy's Montreal Bass Camp. From there, her profile began to grow as she headlined Boiler Room's Montreal showcase, toured with the likes of Yves Tumor and Jacques Greene, released her first EPs Superficial and We Share Our Blood, and collaborated with fellow Montreal artist Helena Deland on the interdimensional Hildegard.
Now Ouri is ready to take up more space and hone in on her own vocals and songwriting craft with "Felicity" and more music to come. Listen to "Felicity" above, connect with Ouri and find her Canadian festival dates announced thus far below.
