Haley Fohr, of experimental folk project Circuit des Yeux, presents new visual imagery to accompany her extraordinary long player Reaching For Indigo; a broadcast for the fourth single “Falling Blonde“.
The video presented is a super 8 film edited, directed, and starring New Zealand based video artist Veronica Crockford-Pound. It is in response to the song “Falling Blonde”, our discussions about the action of falling (the most natural state of all things), and our bodily relationship to gravity. Gravity has the ability to keep us together and depending on our alignment, can result in suffering or balance, both of which we all experience during our time on Earth.
As an exclusive to Le Guess Who? Festival, for the first time, Haley Fohr shall enlist an eight-piece ensemble featuring members of the Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra. This one-time performance further expands the captivating compositions of Reaching For Indigo and will include the first live rendition of previously unreleased music from the album’s sessions.
Circuit des Yeux is also embarking on a tour of the midwest US this Summer, Scandinavia in Autumn, and is presenting her compositional soundtrack for Charles Bryant’s 1923 silent film Salomé in New York City and Chicago. With Haley’s ever expanding list of talents and performances, Circuit des Yeux continues to interpret the world around her in new and exciting ways
