Her fifth album marks her signing to Drag City

Haley Fohr's fifth album as Circuit Des Yeux will mark her debut with Drag City, and above, you can check out a video for lead track 'Paper Bag'.

The album, entitled Reaching for Indigo, is billed as a mostly DIY affair, influenced by astrology, and "genuflecting with Saggitarian energy". The video for 'Paper Bag', curated and edited by U.S. Girls' Meg Remy, features a collage of different clips, from up-close shots of insects to children’s dance classes. Haley Fohr’s voice stands out clearer than ever, with distinction and a deep, powerful tone.

Reaching for Indigo is Fohr's first album since 2015's In Plain Speech and will be released on October 20. You can pre-order the album here. Fohr will also play a specially commissioned work called 'Big Black Box' later this month at Berlin's Pop-Kultur. Find more information on that show here.
