Villagers / Charlotte Gainsbourg – Record Store Day 7″
In the fall of 2010, Charlotte Gainsbourg approached Conor O’Brien (aka Villagers) to compose a song for her.

The result is ‘Memoir’, a song which Conor wrote between soundchecks and radio sessions on his week long mid-western tour last September before staying up all night in a Chicago hotel room to finish the track. Charlotte loved it and they recorded it together the following week at Studio Ferber in Paris, with Conor co-producing alongside Renaud Letang (producer of Feist, Jamie Lidell, Manu Chao…).

The split 7″ features the sumptuous ‘Set the Tigers Free’ by Villagers as well as Charlotte’s beautiful rendition of ‘Memoir’, taken from her ‘Live and Unreleased’ album out this Autumn. These tunes will be wrapped up in striking 7″ artwork by Conor and sold exclusively for Record Store Day.
