Lisa Hannigan |
---|
Lisa Margaret Hannigan (born 12 February 1981) is an Irish singer, songwriter, and musician. For several years she was a member of Damien Rice's band before beginning her solo career in 2008. She has been the recipient of various award nominations and critical praise both in Ireland and the USA. Hannigan has performed and been associated with Cathy Davey, Mic Christopher, Mick Flannery, David Kitt and members of Snow Patrol, The Frames and Bell X1. She has performed at the Glastonbury Festival both as a solo artist and with Damien Rice.
Early life and education
Hannigan was born in Kilcloon, County Meath, Ireland.[8] She attended primary school at Scoil Oilibhear Naofa in Kilcloon and secondary school at The King's Hospital in Palmerstown.[9] At the age of eighteen, she enrolled at Trinity College, Dublin, where she studied art history.[citation needed] Hannigan enjoyed theater and auditioned for musicals as a teenager and was cast as Second Urchin in her school's production of My Fair Lady.[8]
Career
2001-2007
Hannigan began her six year collaboration with Damien Rice at a concert in the Temple Bar Music Centre in Dublin in early 2001.[10][11][12] She sang on most of the tracks for Rice's 2002 album O. In 2006, she sang the lead vocal on the Rice's song "9 Crimes" and performed at the Electric Picnic music festival in Stradbally, County Laois.[10][11][11][13] As a member of Rice's live performance band, she contributed vocals and on occasion electric guitar, bass and drums.[10][11]
In 2007, Hannigan left the Damien Rice band to pursue a solo career.[12][14] “It was upsetting, but worse things have happened. For everybody it was coming to the end of its cycle.”[13] Hannigan returned to Dublin and began reviving her solo career.[7][8][14] The singer later said of the split: "I suppose it was coming for a long time. I had become pretty outspoken about my frustrations at the direction the band was going in, and I'm sure he was starting to find me a pain."[8] Rice said that their incompatible song writing styles were to blame for the inadequacies in his song "Unplayed Piano".[15] She was comforted by members of The Magic Numbers and has not spoken to Rice since the split.[8] In retrospect, Hannigan says the split was the best thing that has ever happened to her.[14]
2008-present
Some of Hannigan's live recordings were made available through trading networks radio shows. These recordings included: "Willy" by Joni Mitchell, "Be My Husband" by Nina Simone (from the 1965 album Pastel Blues), "Mercedes Benz" by Janis Joplin and "Love Hurts" by Roy Orbison.[11] Hannigan also performed live with her own band, called The Daisy Okell Quartet and contributed guest vocals to the recordings of Mic Christopher, The Frames and Herbie Hancock.[11]
Lisa Hannigan's debut solo album, titled Sea Sew, was rehearsed in a barn in Thomastown and recorded in Dublin before being released in Ireland in September 2008.[16] The lead single, "Lille", was made available as a free Internet download and other tracks were available for preview on her Myspace page.[17] The sleeve featured needle-work by Hannigan.[4][18] Some music critics called the recording one of the best Irish albums of the year.[19][20]
Sea Sew was played on the American radio station KCRW and received favorable reviews in the Los Angeles Times and The New York Times.[8][21] The single "Lille", released in August 2008 on Irish and American radio stations.[7] Hannigan performed at Electric Picnic 2008.[22] Hannigan supported singer-songwriter Jason Mraz on a 42-date U.S. tour in 2008.[5]
Also in 2008, she appeared on the charity album Even Better Than the Disco Thing and performed a duet of Mick Flannery's new song "Christmas Past" with Flannery on Tony Fenton's Christmas Special on Today FM.[6][23] In December 2008, she made her UK solo debut at St Johns Church in London.[24] Hannigan signed with ATO Records in the U.S., where her album was released in February 2009.[25]
Sea Sew was nominated for the Choice Music Prize and Best Irish Album at the Meteor Music Awards in January 2009.[26][27][28]
That same year, Hannigan appeared on the American television shows Jay Leno, The Colbert Report and was well received by their respective hosts.[8][13][29][30] In 2009, Hannigan also appeared on the BBC's Later... with Jools Holland, performing her song "I Don't Know".[13][31][32][33] Sea Sew rose in the UK charts following this appearance[citation needed] and she performed at Glastonbury 2009 music festival and went on tour later in the year.[24][33][34][35] She performed at the nomination ceremony and she was greeted by confused journalists wondering "Lisa who?".[16]
Hannigan performed at Electric Picnic 2009[8][36][37][38][39][40] and Le Chéile.[41] Later in 2009, she toured the United States with David Gray and performed solo shows in New York, Los Angeles and London.[42] She then began a tour of Ireland to finish the year.[42] Hannigan's song "Ocean and Rock" was used in a 2009 Irish video supporting same-sex marriage entitled "Sinéad's Hand".[43]
In 2010, a broadcast of Other Voices was planned.[44]
Reception
Her music has received critical praise, airplay and award nominations both in her native Ireland and the United States. In 2008, her debut album Sea Sew spawned the single "Lille", a Choice Music Prize nomination, two Meteor Music Awards nominations and a Mercury Prize nomination. There has also been praise from fellow musicians and, in recent times, Jools Holland of the United Kingdom and US television hosts Jay Leno and Stephen Colbert.
Hannigan emits "a moan of delicate strength, and stirring warmth and humanity", describing her style as that of "plinky plonk rock", a genre coined by a friend. She performs using "broken-down, wheezy old instruments", assisting her band members in the transportation of this equipment. Her blog posts are noted for containing recipes for baking cakes.[13] Herbie Hancock said of her vocals, "there's so much jazz in the notes and phrases that she picks. She was singing the ninths, the elevenths of the chords...I mean some of the things sound like choices that Miles would have made." Possibilities DVD.[11]
To date,[when?] Sea Sew has sold 45,000 copies worldwide – with 15,000 of those copies sold in Ireland.
Personal life
Hannigan founded "The Cowardly Lion Theatre Group" and appeared in a Jessamyn Fiore play titled The Mysterious World of Birds in September 2003. The play received performances in Dublin and Galway, Ireland.[11]
As part of an advertisement campaign for Oxfam's Make Trade Fair, Hannigan was drenched in melted chocolate and she participated in the Irish musical collective The Cake Sale with lead vocal on the track Some Surprise, which was played on the US television series Grey's Anatomy.[3][10][11][14][45][46]
Hannigan also contributed to the 2009 charity album, Sparks n' Mind, released in aid of Aware.[47]

As well as the evening concerts in the 200-year-old St James's church, which has a capacity (approximately 80) that is far less than the frantic demand for tickets, one of the add-ons of the series is the filming of "sessions" in unusual locations. So far, these have included BellX1's Paul Noonan dueting with rising Irish singer, Lisa Hannigan, in Dún Chaoin (in a cottage owned by artist Marie Simmons Gooding), American band The Antlers performing in the locality's Celtic prehistoric museum, and Irish band Villagers in Dingle's cosy Goat Street Café.
