The pensive, radiant lead single &#8220;Everyone Around Me Dancing&#8221; is out today.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8216;Everyone Around Me Dancing&#8217; is a reflection on feeling isolated and the comfort found in that isolation,&#8221; Margaret explains. &#8220;It is for taking a pause, for being in observation of a very scary and loud world and it is for finding stillness in our own inner worlds too.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Singing was recorded in London, Eau Claire, and Chicago in 2024 and 2025 with Frou Frou\u2019s Guy Sigsworth, David Bazan, Amy Millan, Deb Talan, Kurt Vile, and Sean Carey. Her frequent collaborator Doug Saltzman also plays on and co-produces much of the LP.
