Hannigan Set for US Bow

Lisa Hannigan’s Sea Sew album, released in Ireland in 2008, has been slated for a January 2009 release in the US after her recent deal with ATO Records in the USA. Hannigan first came to the fore as part of Damien Rice's band where she was a standout on songs like 'The Blower's Daughter' and '9 Crimes'. The County Meath singer, who toured with Jason Mraz last fall, heads to San Diego on February 11th to begin her own headlining tour. Having also collaborated with Gary Lightbody of Snow Patrol, Hannigan now has her own material to promote and she looks forward to introducing a new set of potential fans to her work.
