Circuit des Yeux released their sixth album and first for Matador, -io, in October, and they'll be supporting it on a North American tour, beginning later this month. It includes SXSW, Big Ears, and some headlining dates in February and March, followed by dates in Europe and the UK in April and more North American shows in May and June. She also plays End of the Road in September. See all dates below.
The spring shows include an NYC show at Green-Wood Cemetery on June 7, part of Pioneer Works' Graveyard Shift performance series. Tickets are on sale now.
Circuit des Yeux also shared a new single, "The Manatee (A Story of This World Pt. III)." It was recorded during the same sessions as -io, and about the song, Haley Fohr says, "At 4:30 A.M. on February 4th, 2020 a manatee popped out of the sea and stared directly at me. It was a charged 10 seconds. The experience stuck with me so much that I wrote a song about it. The music video, directed by Rudy Rubio, is a depiction of my own kind of manatee. I play a wet sea creature trying to make it work in a dry-land society… The manatee is my reminder that intuition and two legs might be all a person needs to find a more hospitable world – perhaps an undiscovered place to call home."
