Played by Palavas
Franck Ruzé is a French novelist who writes about the limits and the extremes of the female gender. He also produces dream-folk music under the pseudonym "Palavas" (which is the seaside town where he goes to the beach in summer) with which he explores the themes of loss and healing.
"This is a LP to load up onto your listening device and go for a long walk through the countryside, or, along a desolate beach holding hands with the ghost from your yesterdays and finding solace in the dying embers of the sun. This LP is simply heartbreakingly beautiful." Monolith Cocktail - https://tinyurl.com/y3wact7s
"Lush and expansive while remaining intimate, Played is quite the unique journey. It’s all propelled forward by Palavas‘ vocals – which he uses quite creatively and beautifully – often behaving more like an instrument itself than words being sung, and I adore it."

"I would be a fool to not give this album my recc. It is so incredibly well thought out and so well made. His vision is so complete and so concrete that it is nothing short of a miracle that he was able to accomplish in music, what other artists in other mediums struggle to accomplish."

"If you are already on the edge of letting emotional tears flow, this might be the album that pushes those salty bits to pop out and drop down." Yeah I Know It Sucks - https://tinyurl.com/y2eazhee
