Circuit Des Yeux has shared a new video for "The Manatee (A Story of This World Pt. III)"

Circuit des Yeux has released new song and video, “The Manatee (A Story of This World Pt. III)”. Recorded during the sessions for her LP -io.

Circuit des Yeux’s 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. It is inspired by the scientific understanding that the manatee crawled into the ocean 50,000,000 years ago. 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 has also announced European and North American tour dates for 2022

Last week, guitarist and songwriter Steve Gunn released a new five-song EP, Nakama, which features Circuit des Yeux’s re-work of ‘Ever Feel -io is the sixth album and Matador Records debut by Circuit des Yeux (Haley Fohr).
