A UFO sighting near Highland, Illinois, occurred i

A UFO sighting near Highland, Illinois, occurred in the early morning of January 5, 2000, when multiple witnesses reported a massive, silent, house-like triangular craft with lights flying low and slowly over the area, which became known as the “St. Clair Triangle”.

This sighting was the inspiration behind “Concerning the UFO Sighting Near Highland, Illinois,” which appears on @Sufjan’s album ‘Illinois.’

Enjoy Sufjan performing the song at the Manchester Apollo in the UK on August 31, 2015.

‘Illinois’ is available to purchase/stream on your favorite service - link in stories.
