Default "Field Recordings" from Lisa Hannigan + Joe Henry

This sounds like a nifty little project:

Quote:
Dear brothers and sisters,

As we are freshly disembarked on a three-week collaborative tour of select cities across North America—cities chosen for their hospitality, favorable climates, and distinct culinary opportunities—we thought it might be interesting to share a few sonic glimpses behind the curtain with you all as we go.

To that end, our aim is to record single-mic sketches— in hotel rooms, back alleys and upon loading docks…wherever we find ourselves—of songs with relevance to stops along our way: songs of our own invention that might have been provoked by location or covers of songs that continually ground us to a place.

We pledge no heroics, but instead hope to simply expand our stage beyond its apron. An official performance happens within the confines of an evening, but the impulse it reveals is fed and being constantly reimagined by the songs that move around and through us like weather.

Songs are our common vocabulary, after all, and give shape not only to formal pronouncements, but as well to every whispered aside and stolen laugh over coffee. And we want to keep the conversation alive.

Love to all,
Lisa and Joe
The first dispatch is Passenger from Chicago.
