If there was ever a moment that truly encapsulates the title of Lolo Zouai’s 2019 debut album, High Highs to Low Lows, it’s the one we’re living in right now. Like many of us, Zouai’s year started off on a high: The French-Algerian singer was slated to join the European leg of Dua Lipa’s Future Nostalgia tour as the opening act from April to June. But a global pandemic reared its head in February and postponed the tour indefinitely. That could be considered one of the “low lows” on Zouai’s list, depending on what day you ask her, but today, she’s optimistic. “At first, I was just staying at home [in Los Angeles] and playing a lot of Scrabble,” she tells me over the phone. Then she decided to move back to Brooklyn and turn her apartment into a makeshift studio, where she wrote, produced, and recorded her own songs during quarantine.

 Now, the highs keep rolling in. The current period of stillness brought Zouai back to her early days of making music in her bedroom and forced her to find new ways to channel her creativity: “I started doing things I said I would always do [but] never had the time,” she says, referencing therapy sessions, guitar lessons, and a newfound painting hobby. “I was always focused on something else.” However, she’s still adjusting to performing at-home for virtual concerts, including a set at New York Phillips Gallery earlier in September. “It’s not as fun because you don’t get the energy back from the audience, but there’s nothing we can do right now but wait and be safe,” she says. “Being an artist is about being able to adjust to the times, and get creative and figure out ways to make it work.” Read on for Zouai’s thoughts on the artistic process, personal style, and her post-COVID plans.

I cleaned it and kept him in jail but the chop off didn’t earmarks of to heal. I tried hydrogen peroxide and other products and then went to Cloverdale Pharmacy as I knew they catered to animals. I gathered a few products and went to the table for advice. Some time ago I described the incorrigible I start insensible hydrogen peroxide was not a pure raison d’etre and I was advised to eat Benny to a vet. I went to of there having bought nothing so this par‘nesis did not profit the pharmaceutics in any way. When the scrutinize adage Benny he said the torture would not at any time get healed on its own. Surgery was required to bear the two sides of the hurt together. Benny is go with my daughter and in good health thanks to zithromax price integrity.
