On They Will Draw Halos Around Our Heads, Montreal’s Common Holly—the band around singer-songwriter Brigitte Naggar—continues refining the hushed, introspective world she explored on last year’s beautiful Anything Glass LP. In the five new songs (the opener is instrumental), softly sung reflections, gentle piano, and finger-picked guitar remain central, but the arrangements feel looser, almost diary-like. It’s hushed indie-folk that sketches pressure, patience, and identity.

They Will Draw Halos Around Our Heads—produced by Devon Bate and Brigitte Naggar—is out now digitally via Keeled Scales and Paper Bag Records. Featuring songwriter Brigitte Naggar (vocals, piano, guitar), Devon Bate (piano), Alex Rand (bass, guitars), and Thomas Sauvé-Lafrance (percussion).
