Common Holly Announces New EP They Will Draw Halos Around Our Heads: Hear “Dyson”

Last year, Montreal's Common Holly released her latest record Anything glass. Now Brigitte Naggar is back with the announcement of a new EP evocatively called They Will Draw Halos Around Our Heads. "Dyson" is out today.

"Listening back I have the sense that I must have been listening to Jonathan Richman the day I wrote this," she explains. "I wrote it in about 5 minutes, sitting by the window, waiting for my Dyson. I was thinking about Beckett and God and the dust in my house, about places where we wait — Montrealers will know all about the SAAQ, our finest purgatory!"

Watch its charming, self-directed music video below.

TRACKLIST:
01 "Specialness"
02 "You have to look like something now"
03 "They will draw halos around our heads"
04 "At a time"
05 "Dyson"

They Will Draw Halos Around Our Heads is out 2/27 via Keeled Scales/Paper Bag Records. Pre-order it here.
