Avery Cochrane shares gorgeous “Shapeshifting on a Saturday Night (Alone in My Bedroom Version)”
Seattle alt-pop riser Avery Cochrane has reimagined her breakout single with a stripped-back, intimate take that cuts right to the heart. The new acoustic rendition, “Shapeshifting on a Saturday Night (Alone in My Bedroom Version),” trades the shimmer of the original for something rawer and more vulnerable, letting Cochrane’s emotive storytelling take center stage.
The song explores the disorienting pressure of molding yourself into whatever version of “you” feels most acceptable to others, a theme Cochrane delivers with both poignancy and grace. The original track soared with infectious alt-pop energy (earning over 1.5 million streams and viral traction on TikTok). This version feels like a diary entry sung out loud, pulling listeners closer into the artist’s inner world. It is deeply vulnerable, like she’s singing straight to you in the quiet after a long night out. Lush acoustic guitars underlay her soul-drenched vocals that build.
It’s a testament to Cochrane’s versatility: whether crafting bold, glittering anthems like “Existential Crisis at the Tennis Club” or offering hushed, acoustic reflections, she continues to showcase why she’s one of indie pop’s most compelling new voices. For fans who’ve danced to the original, this version is the late-night confession that lingers after the party ends.
