Sounds like a post about naturalistic painters, with those two names. But this is a post about two singers with a Jane Birkin connection. Lou Doillon is ofcourse the gorgeous daughter of Jane (and Jacques Doillon). A part from being a model and an actress, she also reads poetry in the theater, and sings. I never heard her sing, until I got a link to her Myspace, plus a mail with some mp3s (merci for that). She sounds very much like a young Chrissie Hynde. And nowadays looks like a cross between Jane and Amy Winehouse, as you can see on the cover of the March edition of French Playboy.
I also got a mail containing a brandspankingnew song by Marie Modiano. The song has a breathtakingly beautiful woodwind arrangement, and sounds very much like a Birkin-song. It was produced by genius Peter von Poehl. Alas, Marie sings in English, as she did on her first album (the new one drops in September). She did a French duet with Thomas Dutronc, wish she sang in our beloved language some more.
Lou Doillon - Girl is Gone
Marie Modiano - Last Early Spring

BeantwoordenVerwijderenOh my, if Serge was still alive, he never would have let Charlotte's half-sister get away with tracks like those at her MySpace.
