Brigitte Naggar, better known by her stage name Common Holly, is a Canadian musician from Montreal, Quebec.[1] As Common Holly, Naggar has released two full-length albums.
Naggar's first album, Playing House, was released in 2017.[2] The album was originally self-released on Bandcamp, before later being widely released by Solitaire Recordings.[3] Naggar followed up that release two years later. On July 24, 2019, Naggar announced plans to release her second full-length album as Common Holly. Speaking about the album, Naggar stated,
This record isn't one singular statement, it documents a period of growth. The songs were written mainly over two years and they all reflect potent moments from that time. While it's obviously personal and based off of [sic] my own experience, I want this album to feel familiar — life gets complicated as we grow, people form relationships to each other, they lose things, they discover pain, fear, self-delusion; sometimes it's funny, sometimes it's weird, often it sucks—and we have to navigate our way through all of that.
The album, titled When I say to you Black Lightning, was released on October 27, 2019 through Barsuk Records.[4][5]
