# What happened Emma Ogier has signed with Lost Highway Records and announced her debut album, Fly 1111. The record is scheduled for release on November 11 via Lost Highway, and Ogier shared a new single, "Hands Tied," as the latest preview of the collection.
# How this record was put together
Robert Knotts and Jake Gear, EVP and Co-Heads of Lost Highway Records, described what attracted the label to her work: "What struck us immediately about Emma is how completely herself she is. Her songs are intimate and deeply human, but there's also a restless creative spirit behind them. She isn't interested in fitting neatly into a genre or following a prescribed path, which is exactly what we admire most about her."
# What Fly 1111 sounds like and what it addresses
Key tracks already released or previewed include:
The full Fly 1111 tracklist is: "All These Dreams," "Baby Don't Hurt Me," "Hands Tied," "Land," "Rocksteady/HeavyMetal," "Believing," "W2F," "The Prize," "Keep You," "West And Down," "Fly 1111," and "Private Power."
# Where Ogier will play next Ogier is scheduled to make her Austin City Limits Festival debut on October 3. She will support Hovvdy on the first leg of their North American tour. Additional announced appearances include joining Joshua Slone at Red Rocks Amphitheatre on November 4, and in January 2027 she will join Bright Eyes for a two-night stand at Brooklyn Paramount, following summer performances with Bright Eyes during anniversary shows.
# Why this matters for listeners Fly 1111 represents Ogier's first full-length statement after several singles and collaborations. The combination of a recognized producer (David Baron), a major independent imprint (Lost Highway Records), and a schedule of festival and support slots positions the album to reach a wider audience than her earlier independent releases.
