Background

Prior to the release of Julie & Dany, Doiron and Placard met in 2018. They entered a romantic relationship a number of months after Doiron bought Placard's album Full Face and wrote him to tell him she bought it. Placard's album became one of Doiron's inspirations for her 2021 album I Thought of You,[6] which he had also featured on.[7]
