PRAISE FOR COMMON HOLLY

"The Montréal based singer-songwriter – real name Brigitte Naggar – is a potent talent, someone who engages and provokes at every turn”
-CLASH

""Aegean blue" is a meditative piano-based track brightened by Naggar's striking vocal melody."
-Stereogum

"introspective baroque-pop songwriting"
-FLOOD

"Common Holly (aka Montreal-based Brigitte Naggar) makes gentle indie folk with something of an edge to it, an ever-roiling undercurrent of darkness the constant accompaniment to her ruthless self-interrogations—the deeply emotional, skeletally beautiful music of early Cat Power, Smog, and Aldous Harding would probably be the closest analog"
-Bandcamp

"Lulling piano and doubled vocals give "Aegean blue" a dreamlike quality, with faint woodwind trills padding out its gentle percussive pulse."
-Exclaim!

"Common Holly's forthcoming third album captures her band live and alive in a room together, singing to worries and wisdoms"
-Line of Best Fit

"eclectic indie pop meets jazz "
-Billboard

"Common Holly is anything but a common artist who is unafraid to push the boundaries of her creativity.

A standout of 2025, Montreal-based singer-songwriter Brigitte Naggar (aka Common Holly) announces a new EP, They will draw halos around our heads, out February 27th via Keeled Scales and Paper Bag Records. 

Following last year’s critically acclaimed LP, Anything glass, Naggar expands upon her gentle, delicate, and whimsical universe with a collection that highlights her signature introspective and perceptive lyricism, evocative vocals, 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. 

"Listening back I have the sense that I must have been listening to Jonathan Richman the day I wrote this,she explains. "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!"

“Dyson” carries a playful, lighthearted energy, anchored by simple yet effective lyricism that recalls the warmth and intimacy of artists like Kimya Dawson or Frankie Cosmos.

A quiet force, 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.

"Dysonis out January 23rd. They will draw halos around our heads follows on February 27th via Keeled Scales and Paper Bag Records.
