Lisa Hannigan & s t a r g a z e Live in Dublin Limited Vinyl 2LP Set

Overview:

Irish singer-songwriter Lisa Hannigan is set to release a live album with the contemporary-classical orchestra, s t a r g a z e, led by the revered German conductor Andre de Ridder. The collabora-tion - which sees Hannigan's sparse, ethereal folk transformed into something cinematic and transfixing - has been taken to select festivals across Europe, and most recently graced the stages of London's Barbican and Dublin's National Concert Hall. Thankfully for those yet to experience the mesmeric live show, their recent performance at the NCH in October last year is set for release in the shape of Live In Dublin, a discography-spanning 14-track live album, which also includes new track, 'Bookmark'. This live record follows Hannigan's critically-acclaimed third full-length, 2016's At Swim, and arrives in a fruitful musical career spanning 17 years and several award nominations: from the Mercury Prize to Ire-land's Choice Music Prize and Meteor Music Awards. Across it's fourteen tracks - including the likes of 'Ora', 'Lille', 'Fall', 'Little Bird', 'A Sail' and 'Undertow' - Hannigan's delicate vocals and soft-plucked gui-tars and mandolin are delivered against a hypnotic backdrop of sublime waltzing keys, affective string sec-tions and minimalist percussion. The result is something majestic in scope and ambition, and truly beguil-ing in the best possible way.
