In April, Zoh Amba announced their Matador debut album Eyes Full, out June 5th, an album of tough and soulful songs that feel like a pure transmission from the heart. Today, Amba shares the album’s pensive and darkly hypnotic title track, a song about what makes someone’s heart full, and questioning why. It’s accompanied by a video directed by Grace Bader Conrad, featuring Amba and album musicians Jim White (drums) and Kevin Hyland (electric guitar).

‘Eyes Full’ follows first single ‘Another Time’, on which The Guardian said, “the free jazz saxophonist turns equally remarkable songwriter for a record that twists their Appalachian roots with openhearted, choppy indie rock”, and Stereogum in their Best 5 Songs of the Week noted, “that voice, along with those lyrics about being lost and seeking transcendence, make for pure beauty, rustic country-rock style.”

Eyes Full is distinctly, instinctively tied to Zoh’s hometown of Kingsport, Tennessee and the rediscovery of their first instrument, the guitar. The album courses with a type of muddy, loose acoustic blues, punctuated with bursts of feedback-laden electric guitar and sweet burnishes of Appalachian folk.

Support comes from hot springs. With alternative-folk intimacy and art-pop mischief, hot springs invites us into a world where infectious rhythms, oddball riffs, and hypnotic vocals merge into something equal parts soothing and strange. hot springs’ self-titled EP was released in 2026.
