Montreal-based singer/songwriter Brigitte Naggar (aka Common Holly) has announced a new EP, titled They will draw halos around our heads, out February 27th, 2026 via Keeled Scales and Paper Bag Records. The single and visualizer for “Dyson” are out now.

Following last year’s LP, Anything glass, Naggar expands upon her universe with a collection that highlights her introspective lyrics and soft, understated instrumentation.

Pairing with the EP announcement is lead single, “Dyson,” which Naggar describes as, “a bit different for me, stylistically and also process-wise.”

She explains: 

Listening back I have the sense that I must have been listening to Jonathan Richman the day I wrote this. I wrote it in about 5 minutes, sitting by the window, waiting for my Dyson. I was thinking about Beckett and God and the dust in my house, about places where we wait— Montrealers will know all about the SAAQ, our finest purgatory!

Common Holly creates “immersive sonic worlds that invite listeners to slow down and consider a gentler perspective—one that reminds us of what truly matters”.
