Montréal based singer-songwriter Brigitte Naggar (aka Common Holly) has announced her forthcoming album, Anything glass, as well as her signing to Keeled Scales and Paper Bag Records.

"A reckoning in meaninglessness and unending pursuit. The words came in a moment of change and of reevaluating. This song sits squarely in the album’s theme of orienting toward what matters most, doing things differently when they aren’t feeling right," Common Holly says of the new single. "You can hear some of the vocal doubling here–since the album was recorded live, many (all?) of the songs have doubled vocals, because I would sing live while we were performing the song, and then I would later add more vocals on top of that initial vocal. This came to be a quality we liked in the whole experience of the album."

Common Holly's forthcoming third album captures her band live and alive in a room together, singing to worries and wisdoms. Naggar reflects, "we exist in fragile bodies, in a fragile ecosystem, and when we are feeling lucid, we remember we won’t live forever. And that inevitable end encases and contains us by reminding us to look inside and to locate what matters most...and to go toward it!"

Tracklist:

  1. Terrible hands
  2. Aegean blue
  3. Enough
  4. It’s true we’ve been happier
  5. Jazz song
  6. I weighed it up
  7. The wood from the sail
  8. Right in between the lines, I
  9. A pair of ragged claws
  10. Wise mind

Anything glass, will be released on 13 June via Keeled Scales and Paper Bag Records.
