Lisa Hannigan Free In-store Performance

|
Saturday, November 1st – Time TBA (early afternoon)  While she’s best known for the years she’s spent sharing a stage and a studio with Damien Rice, for the past several years Lisa has been branching out by guesting on albums by The Frames and Herbie Hancock as well as contributing to a couple of different benefit albums (the Irish comps Ceol 06 and Cake Sale, where she shared vocal duties with Gary Lightbody of Snow Patrol). Now, Lisa’s finished her debut solo album and she’s brought a few of her old friends along with her, namely Tomo, Shane, and Vyvienne from Damien’s band and several others from the Dublin music scene including Lucy Wilkins who’s played with Brian Ferry and Roxy Music, songwriters Donagh Molloy and Gavin Glass and Cathy Davey, who’s worked with Elbow and the Sneaker Pimps.
Lisa’s influences include Joni Mitchell, Nina Simone, and Damien, of course. She’s currently on tour opening for Jason Mraz (the local date is the Greek later the same night as the in-store) and at some point her debut will be worldwide, but so far Sea Sew is not available anywhere except her shows and through her website, so aside from being excited to host Lisa’s first in-store, we’re also very happy to say we’ll be the first store in the country to have this incredible album. We’ll be opening the guest list to all who pre-order Sea Sew beginning this Thursday, October 16th. Please stop in or call us to place your order, as we haven’t gotten all the info to get it loaded to our website yet. If there is still space available, we will be opening the guest list, first come, first served on October 31st, but if you want to be sure to join us, pre-ordering is the way to go. You can here some of Lisa’s songs at her site or on her myspac e page and you can watch the homemade video to the very playful demo of “My Pirate Disco” with a simple click on those blue words. |
