Melody Prochet is finally releasing the long-awaited follow-up to her beloved 2012 debut as Melody’s Echo Chamber. Her sophomore album is called Bon Voyage and was intended for release last year before the French singer got in a serious accident (the exact details of which are still unknown), causing her to put the album release on hold and cancel her planned tour. She seems to be doing fine now and is on track for release. Today's song of the day is the second single off the album, a psych-pop track called “Breathe In, Breathe Out." It comes with a trippy animated video by Daniel Foothead aka Dr D Foothead. Bon Voyage was recorded with Dungen’s Reine Fiske and the Amazing’s Fredrik Swahn, and will be released June 15 on Fat Possum.
