LIVE WITH LISA HANNIGAN
Last year, folk darling Lisa Hannigan partnered with Long Beach indie store Fingerprints to record an in-store performance that is now available for download through ThinkIndie. Hannigan first visited Fingerprints with friend and collaborator Damien Rice back in November 2006. Their in-store recording was later released as a live EP entitled Warts and All. Exactly two years later, Hannigan returned to Fingerprints with her band to play her own material for an eager crowd. The result was a live EP that fans can download for $3.99 on ThinkIndie.com.

PICK OF THE WEEK
I just decided today that I was going to begin picking songs or videos I think you should know about each week. This is my first pick and it comes from an amazing singer songwriter by the name of Lisa Hannigan.
This is the official video for Lisa Hannigan's song, Lille from her forthcoming album, Sea Sew.
The video was produced and directed by Jamie Hannigan.

LISA HANNIGAN'S SOLO DEBUT SEA SEW SET FOR RELEASE FEBRUARY 3RD.

ACCLAIMED SINGER RECENTLY COMPLETES
NORTH AMERICAN TOUR WITH JASON MRAZ
Lisa Hannigan, the acclaimed Irish singer whom The New York Times calls “exquisitely ethereal,” is poised for the release of her much anticipated solo debut Sea Sew. Set for release February 3 on ATO Records, the album has already garnered airtime on tastemaking radio station KCRW and earned early praise from The Los Angeles Times, which calls it “charmingly idiosyncratic.” Hannigan recently completed a tour supporting Jason Mraz on his 42-date North American tour.
Hannigan’s chance meeting with acclaimed singer-songwriter Damien Rice led to a long period of collaboration and development. From the outset, Hannigan quickly generated attention for her own vocal performances and spent the subsequent few years touring the world, meeting wonderful musicians and friends, writing songs and contributing backing vocals on many friends’ records. Such collaborations included the Frames and Mic Christopher and Hannigan even sang with the legendary Herbie Hancock. She gradually found her voice, needing the microphone less and less.
During her seven-year collaboration with Rice, Hannigan compiled a notebook of songs and fostered the desire and confidence to put them onto a record. Hannigan, along with a talented band of friends—including Tom Osander on drums, Shane Fitzsimons on double bass, Donagh Molloy on trumpet, melodica and glockenspiel, Gavin Glass on piano, Lucy Wilkins on violin and Vyvienne Long on cello—recorded Sea Sew over 14 days in Dublin.
In advance of the album’s release, Hannigan has made available the songs “Lille,” “Sea Song,” “Pistachio” and “I Don’t Know” for streaming via her website. “I Don’t Know,” the first single off Sea Sew, will be released early next year.

LUCK OF THE IRISH
I loved this girl when she sang with Damien Rice, so you can only imagine how I reacted when I found out she was going to have her own solo project. I was totally obsessed with that song 'The Blowers Daughter' and even more so with '9 Crimes' that Lisa sang lead vocals on with Damien.
I have heard some of her new stuff and it's absolutely brilliant! If you can't wait for a hard copy of the album, you can download SEA SAW on iTunes now!
