Drawing the Target Around the Arrow is the second album by American singer-songwriter and producer Caroline Polachek, her only one under the name CEP. It is Polachek's first release since the breakup of her band Chairlift just one month prior. The project was released on January 19, 2017 by Pannonica, (an imprint of Bella Union), as a surprise album. The album was announced by a tweet on January 18, and the album was released as a free download the next day.[3] The album was promoted with a concert at National Sawdust with a twelve-person vocal choir.[4]
