Houston-born singer-songwriter Emma Ogier has signed to Lost Highway Records, which will release her debut album, Fly 1111, on November 11. Produced by David Baron, the 12-track album explores the costs and sacrifices of a creative life, alongside the importance of trusting yourself through uncertainty.
Alongside the announcement, Ogier has shared her new single, “Hands Tied.” Written by Ogier, the track captures the euphoria of falling in love. Listen to “Hands Tied” below.

The new single follows “Keep You” and arrives as Ogier continues to build momentum. Earlier this month, Dominic Fike released “Small Town,” featuring Ogier, and later invited her onstage during his show in Bend, Oregon, to perform the song together.
Fike also shared a video from the performance featuring Ogier singing “Baby Don’t Hurt Me,” a full-circle moment that recalls Brockhampton’s early support of Fike.
Ogier is also set to make her Austin City Limits Music Festival debut on October 3 before joining Hovvdy on the first leg of their North American tour. The album features 12 tracks, including previously released songs “Believing” and “Keep You,” as well as “Rocksteady/HeavyMetal,” a collaboration with Eden Joel.
