Lisa Hannigan: Generous Gorgeous Gifts
“Knots”
“Little Bird”
“Passenger”
“Paper House”
When Irish singer Lisa Hannigan came to the NPR Music offices a few weeks ago, she not only brought along with her one of the most gorgeous voices we’ve heard; she was also one of the warmest guests we’ve welcomed.
Prior to kicking off her solo career, Hannigan made her name performing alongside Damien Rice. She just released her second album, the lush and beautiful Passenger.
Hannigan came to NPR on a rare day in which two different artists were set to perform behind the Tiny Desk, only an hour or so apart. Hannigan and her guitarist, John Smith, arrived early for her set, but rather than leave the office until it was her turn to perform, Hannigan stood quietly in the crowd, watching the first performance and graciously taking it all in.
