craft rock friday with lisa hannigan

The bittersweet video for Lisa Hannigan's "Lille" is full of separation, tragedy at sea, heartbreak, reunion... all told in through the timeless medium of pop-up books.


Lisa Hannigan - Lille from ATO Records on Vimeo.

Lisa Hannigan gets extra craft-rock-friday points: her album is called Sea Sew, and her website is super-crafty, also, with a lovely knitted background and quilted patches.

  3. Oh I'm a sucker for anything crafty...and Lisa Hannigan! I thought I'd never hear her again after she stopped singing with Damien Rice. You have made my day!
