Lizzy

You're a girl, you met a nice looking guy in a bar, you're both in the mood so you take the fella home. But as soon as you lock your door, the nice looking guy turns into, well, a not so good mannered man. I'm pretty sure that is what Lizzy Ling means when she sings about Le Tigre Dans Le Bungalow, one of the songs from her forthcoming album. She sings, plays synths and guitar and writes her own lyrics, although she got some help from Jean Fauque and François Bernheim - Fauque wrote for and worked with Claudine Longet, André Popp, Alizée, Patricia Kaas and Alain Bashung. He also knew Gainsbourg! Lizzy got acquinted to Fauque via Moonbootica, who teamed up both for a song.
Lizzy has a sexy-but-sophisticated voice, that works good with her lounge-tinged songs. Think Clementine, Pizzicato 5. For her album (no label signed her yet) (shame!) she got help from Minimatic - everything this genius touches I like, so Lizzy's upcoming album can't be anything but great.

UPDATE: Lizzy emailed: "I wanted to say thank you to people who commented. Happiness for 2007 !!!"
