Circuit des Yeux has announced a lengthy 2022 tour that brings her across North America, Europe, and the United Kingdom this spring. To coincide with the news, she also released a new song called “The Manatee (A Story of This World Pt. III)” that was recorded during the same sessions as her 2021 album -io. Give it a listen below.
“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,” explained Circuit des Yeux’s Haley Fohr. “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.”
Circuit des Yeux will kick off her tour on February 24 in Vancouver before trekking across the United States. She eventually flies over to Europe for select dates and then concludes the tour with a performance at End of the Road festival in Larmer Tree Gardens. Find the full list of dates below.
