H A U N T I N G

This is Queen of Being French and Super Alt, Camille's, new single. It's called "L'etourderie" which means a careless or absent-minded mistake (yes we did French A Level and we got a sparkling, pearlescent A, smelling of Chanel and onions). It's a lovely, wispy little slip of a thing (only 2 mins long) featuring a pizzicato violin loop and a lithe little tune. Not life-changing, but brills nonetheless.

What's more intriguing is the acoustic video she's made for it, above. The rather frightening Lynchian clip shows her in what looks like an abandoned hipster squat, singing with a bamboo pole balanced on her head. PERFORMANCE ART!

Her new album is out October 17th (that's le dix-sept octobre, to you) and it's called ILO VEYOU. Do you see what she's done there?
