Actress and singer Lea Michele has today released her sophomore album, Places, through Columbia Records and Sony Music Entertainment Australia. Lea spoke with Channel 7's Sunrise this morning about the 11-track album and her current activities – watch it here.
'When it came time to name my album, I settled on Places because this album for me represents a return to form, a return to the stage, and a return to the place I belong," Lea says.

Places I thought was the perfect title for this music and how it reflects who I am as an artist today and where I come from."
