Emma Ogier is a young alt-rock singer-songwriter from Houston who seems to be on a very sharp upward trajectory. Ogier was a teenager during the pandemic, and she developed her twangy and oblique sound in relative isolation. Then she moved to Nashville and released a series of independent singles, starting in 2023. She recently signed with Lost Highway and assisted on Dominic Fike's new single "Small Town." In the months ahead, she'll play Austin City Limits, tour with Hovvdy, and do some shows as a member of Bright Eyes. Now, she's ready to announce her full-length debut Fly 1111.
Ogier recorded Fly 1111 with Lumineers/Noah Kahan producer David Baron. This year, she has released singles like "Rocksteady/HeavyMetal," "Baby Don't Hurt Me," and "Keep You." Her songs definitely have some country-adjacent twang to them, but they also have a splintered, scrawled quality that recalls past indie rock generations. Today, she shares "Hands Tied," a rough and riff-centric song with some big hooks. Before releasing that song, she did a solo-acoustic version as an On The Radar performance, which is pretty funny. Below, check out "Hands Tied," the Fly 1111 tracklist, and Ogier's tour dates.
