Aaron has production credits on every album by The National since and including Alligator and has recently produced the critically acclaimed This Is the Kit album ‘Bashed Out’.

Lisa Hannigan is a singer, songwriter and musician who is well known to Cork audiences having played Cork Opera House and The Cave in recent years. She began her musical career as a member of Damien Rice’s band. Since beginning her solo career in 2007, she has released two albums: Sea Sew (2008) and Passenger (2011). Hannigan’s music has received award nominations both in Ireland and the USA.

This is the Kit is the much beloved musical project of Kate Stables, born in England and based in Paris and Bristol. Kate sings, plays guitar, banjo, trumpet and percussion. Live shows range from a female duo with friend Rozi Plain to a psychedelia tinged electric five-piece. Her latest album ‘Bashed Out’ is produced by Aaron Dessner and released on Brassland Records.

borneoman · 09-17-2015, 08:00 AM

so they´ve made songs together?? guess he did the music and she did the lyrics perhaps??

LisaHanniganChile · 09-17-2015, 02:50 PM

I don't know yet

Lisa only says that she will be playing with Aaron Dessner:

Still, it's clear that they will sing their old songs together. I also hope that Lisa surprise us with a new song (?). So, at least there we would see "something new".

I hope it is much more, because I understand that this show will be awesome.

Is sad, because there is not so much information.

The monday appears this, but only says that they will be there.

Bryce Dessner on Matt Cooper:

"Lisa Hannigan has created another kind of World Premier. She's doing a new set of songs that she's organised and kind of written with my brother Aaron."

"Dessner is in Lismore Castle, Co Waterford, where he is collaborating with Co Meath singer Lisa Hannigan on her next LP (he will produce and co-write the project)."

great to have a confirmation of this. Can't wait!

Oh, indeed is a new song. I really hope that people share videos on youtube, or something.

Thanks, Damien Lisa!

Hannah25 · 09-21-2015, 07:10 PM

Hello, I was at this!

She played some songs from her albums, the three new ones that had been posted online from various gigs (We The Drowned, Prayer for the Dying, and Funeral Suit). And there was also an album's worth of totally new stuff!

The girl beside me was taking notes of snatches of lyrics and things so they might surface

Aaron mentioned at one point that the four of them on stage (him, Lisa, Ross Turner and a guy on piano) were going into the studio together next week (so this week!)

It seems things are afoot

carrroline · 09-21-2015, 10:25 PM

Sounds amazing Hannah!
Thanks for sharing.
