Double LP version. Includes CD. Camille's fourth studio album Ilo Veyou, originally released in 2011. Includes "Allez Allez Allez", "L'étourderie", and "Tout Dit".
"Recorded in a string of unusual locations including three church chapels and Noirlac Abbey, a 12th century Cistercian building located deep in the heart of the central French countryside, Gallic pop maverick Camille's fourth album, Ilo Veyou, reflects the low-key surroundings of its inception with a sound which playfully toys with the notions of silence and space. Indeed, it's possible to hear a pin drop on the majority of its 15 tracks, particularly on the Björk-esque, a cappella closer 'Tout Dit,' which sometimes bravely waits five seconds in-between each of Camille's whispered words; the highly atmospheric, Middle Eastern-tinged 'Le Berger,' which sees her adopt a Bollywood-style vocal alongside a simple oud arrangement, and the bilingual, hushed melodies of 'Pleasure,' which are accompanied solely by some echo-laden, muted percussion. While this sparse approach could have turned into a gimmick in lesser hands, Camille's flair for invention ensures the album never turns into a one-trick pony." --Jon O'Brien, AllMusic

Camille's second studio album Le Fil, originally released in 2004. Le Fil features a "tone", a low-level drone that is in the background of every song, which Camille has described as "her note". The note is a B. The singer also mentioned that many people returned the record, thinking this sound was a fault with the recording. The title also arises due to the similar word "fille", or "girl", which arises in a lot of the songs. Includes "La Jeune Fille Aux Cheveux Blancs" and "Ta Douleur". CD version comes in a jewel box with a 12-page booklet.

Camille's first studio album Le Sac Des Filles, originally released in 2002 on Source. Includes "Mon Petit Vieux", "1, 2, 3", and "Paris". CD version comes in a jewel box with an eight-page booklet.
"French pop star Camille has been widely hailed for both her vocal skills and the lyrics that set her apart from the popular music often heard on MTV. With her 2002 solo debut, Le Sac des Filles, Camille scored a hit that was only the first of many to follow. The cabaret-inspired track 'Paris' speaks of her love/hate relationship with the City of Lights, and it particularly hit home with fans. The album also features the sweet and moving 'La Ou Je Suis Nee' and 'Un Homme Deserte,' the latter of which was one of the first original songs written by Camille." --Celeste Rhoads, AllMusic

Camille presents Ouï, her fifth studio album. Recorded over a year in La Chartreuse, a 14th century monastery-turned-artist's residence in Avignon, France, Ouï is a cornucopia thrumming with folk, hymns, ballads, pop, lullabies, and breathtaking a cappella. "The story of the album is like this, moving from the arcane drums" -- percussion is used throughout as the bedrock -- "to the treble and harmonics and light in my voice." An instrument of exhilarating range and phenomenal power, Camille's voice provides all the vocal parts on Ouï. Co-produced by Camille with two of her longtime collaborators, composer and multi-instrumentalist Clement Ducol and sound and mixing engineer Maxime Leguil, and featuring the Moog analog synthesizer, Ouï is a work with a pulse. "It really resonates," says Camille, "On some songs there are no drums, just this sub-bass like a kick drum, which leads the way and gives it a beat." While she sets out to write politically charged songs inspired by drum-driven French traditional dances, reflecting upon the country's recent, tragic events, she was equally led to something peaceful, vowel-oriented, and vibrational in her exploration of sound. The latter explains the album's title. Becoming a mother for the second time also had a bearing -- "Having my children made me want to dive again into the spring of life, of love, of sound. All this mothering has led me to an approach of fluidity." "Fontaine Du Lait", the album's first single, with its flute sounds and arrangements that overlap, evokes this concept of fluidity. Two traditional French music pieces play their part in "Je Ne Mâche Pas Mes Mots" and "Twix", whilst "Seeds", the album's only English language song, is about reaping what we sow. "Lasso", with its uneven rhythms and lyrics about throwing, spinning but never quite catching, and "Sous Le Sable" is an ode to a mysterious woman who lives below the sand. The French language and the magic of sound dominate Ouï. It also pays tribute to Camille's father -- "My father was a singer and whilst he didn't do music for a living he definitely showed me the way. This is the first time he won't hear a new album of mine, which is maybe why I called it Oui - Ouï - like 'heard'. I wanted to make something so vibrational, so beautiful, that he can hear it where he is." Blue, fabric-covered, gatefold sleeve; Printed paper inner-sleeve; Includes CD.

Camille's second live album, originally released in 2013. Recorded October 24, 2012 at the Olympia Bruno Coquatrix in Paris. Comes in a jewel box with a four-page booklet.
"French pop chanteuse Camille attracted international attention as a member of the acclaimed Nouvelle Vague before resuming her solo career. Born Camille Dalmais in Paris in 1978, she focused on ballet throughout adolescence while developing a passion for bossa nova and American stage musicals. At 16, she performed an original song, 'Un Homme Déserté,' at a wedding and from that point forward embraced songwriting, channeling influences including '60s folk and '70s soul. While taking vocal lessons Camille began playing Paris jazz clubs, and in 2001 she made her professional acting debut in the film Les Morsures de l'Aube, contributing the song 'La Vie la Nuit' to its soundtrack." -- AllMusic
