Fabienne Delsol

album cover

Between You and Me
Damaged Goods

French lady in London Fabienne Delsol's debut album, No Time For Sorrows, was an absolute gem - a record that was so authentically sixties-sounding and sweet you could hardly believe it was recorded in 2004. Her follow-up - a mix of original material and covers sung in English and her native tongue - is even better. Perfectly beautiful pop music recorded by her partner Liam, of Toe Rag Studios. Why, oh why, though is it so short?
