Hand Habits (the project of Meg Duffy) has announced the release of their forthcoming album Fun House, which will be out on October 22 via Saddle Creek, also sharing a video for the album’s lead single “Aquamarine.” The one-shot video was directed by V Haddad, and can be viewed below along with the album’s tracklist and cover art.

Speaking about the new song and video in a press release, Duffy states: “What originally started as a minimally arranged acoustic ballad, ‘Aquamarine’ evolved into the story of certain events in life, what informs my identity, the silence in the questions left unanswered that become the shape of understanding who I am. It was my goal to cloak some of the perils of mortality (lyrically) in a musical landscape that didn’t require the listener for a large amount of patience, to bring grief into the metaphorical club. We filmed this video in my aunt’s bar and club in upstate New York, linking the origin and lineage themes in the song with the visuals of changing identities and characters in a space I used to wander as a teen.”

Fun House was produced by Sasami Ashworth (who produces music as SASAMI) and engineered by Kyle Thomas (King Tuff). Duffy’s most recent music project, dirt EP, came out earlier this year on Saddle Creek.
