Places was recorded at Studio De LA Seine in Paris and quickly achieved
critical praise across Europe, referred to as 'a real wonder' by Mad and
'splendid and miraculous' by Le soir. The chanteuse has followed in the
footsteps of the French singers before her such as Carla Bruni, Keren Ann
and Charlotte Gainsbourg to craft an array of beautiful, sweeping songs
with producer Zdar (Phoenix, The Rapture, Beastie Boys).

As the daughter of international icon Jane Birkinand Jacques Doillon, and
with Serge Gainsbourg as her step-father, it goes without saying that Lou
was born into a creative environment. Although she originally pursued
acting and modeling careers, Lou always kept music as a hobby, and even
wrote many songs in English, which she refers to as her 'private
language.' Lou finally revealed her musical talents in the spring of 2012
with the European release of the first track on the album, 'ICU.' Its
haunting vocals, compelling melody and twilight ambiance held the
immediate promise of a bright future.

The first single off the album 'Devil or Angel,' an immediate classic, is
a ballad sung by a woman freed at last, summoning up Velvets-loaded
memories. The album continues to showcase Lou's unique voice and timbre.
Describing days of melancholy passing at the pace of a drum roll, 'One Day
After Another' is reminiscent of Patti Smith's narrative art, while 'Make
A Sound's' pop immediacy holds a reference to its writer's 'leaded wings.'
Much like Cat Power, Lou Doillon is equally at home with an acoustic range
(the iridescent clearing in the middle of the album: Same Old Game) and
brass-backed soul (Jealousy and Questions And Answers - two visas for
Memphis). These livelier tunes also heighten the depth of her startlingly
flexible voice.

The strongly autobiographical lyrics on Places reveal years of transience,
a troubled personality and a rebellious nature. Throughout the 40-minute
listening experience, Lou Doillon manages to turn everything you may think
you know upside down.
