ST. TROPEZ, FRANCE | August 26, 2022: Tiphanie Doucet is proving the soundtrack to your summer nights with “Une Love Song” her first bilingual lo-fi pop single released to all streaming platforms today. In this song, the French songwriter, vocalist, and instrumentalist writes a letter to her future love, in the most dreamy, romantic and chill way possible. This is a feel-good love song, part of her upcoming concept album to be released in early 2023 where the artist writes “letters” in song form to people that had an important place in her life: the man she left, the man she hopes to meet, a friend that could have become the love of her life…and one where she makes amends with her estranged father. With a dreamy and light lo-fi beat reminiscent of Japanese Breakfast and Clairo, this is a bilingual song with verses in her native French and choruses in English, mirroring her pre-pandemic life in New York City and sudden move back to France where she is performing regular shows in the resort town of St. Tropez. Doucet was thrust into the French music scene after living and working in New York City for over ten years, leaving the day before all flights to France were canceled due to the New York City lockdown in March 2020.
“Une Love Song” stands apart from Tiphanie Doucet’s previous releases with the new lo-fi electronic sound that she co-produced along with Raphael Dhervez and Bill Cox in France. True to her mixture of French and American cultures, she later added to the recording the remotely tracked bass by Mike Abiuso from his Brooklyn recording studio. Tiphanie’s sweet and peaceful vocals and lo-fi beat are augmented by the addition of the Celtic harp, an instrument she studied when growing up in her native France.
Accompanying the single release is the “Une Love Song” music video, shot in France, where we see Tiphanie writing her letters, set in a retro-vintage vibe, perfectly colored to set the ultimate chill tone of the music. Aerial shots of her riding her bike in her countryside home give us a sneak peek into who she is as an artist and where she came from. The lighting and the dreamy camera focus are the perfect pairings to Tiphanie’s audio.
Tiphanie is known for her acoustic singer-songwriter breakout single “Under My Sun” released in 2018, and while rebuilding her career in the French music scene in March of 2022 Doucet released the Vanessa Paradis classic “Joe Le Taxi”, the first release in this new electro-pop sound.
Tiphanie Doucet adds:
“People kept telling me during the pandemic that my voice made them feel at peace… When I reflected on my music and my life, I started writing with this vision, and since I had written a lot of breakup songs, I thought “how would I sound if I wrote a love song and give people that peaceful feeling with it “
“The mix of language is very important to me since it’s how I see myself, a mix of American and French culture.”

Last Day Deaf, Premiere “Une Love Song” Aug. 25, 2022
“This bilingual (French/English) lovesong is an eerie outpost, an instant escapade for lovers, -and all of those who want to be loved-, sung in the best possible way, like a fairy visiting you in one of those dreams you never wanted to wake up, and with an addictive, sing-along, a chorus that will stick like big bubblegum in your brain for days. Time to get lost with this ultimate pop bliss!”
Pop Matters, Premiere “You and I” Sept. 28, 2020
“Doucet returns with “You and I”, a serene slice of folk/alt-rock that feels plucked from the mid-1990s and garnished with modern symphonic treatments. It’s as beautiful and catchy as anything in her catalog, etching itself into your heart and leaving a great impression of her upcoming EP, Painted Blue, set to release on 23 October.”
