A soothing oceanic purr\, a piercing lupine howl&mdash\;two singer-songwriters stretching the boundaries of introspective\, heartfelt f olk music. Lisa Hannigan brings us on her continuing nautical journey with& nbsp\;At Swim\, while Patrick Wolf shares his new material and sou nd withThe Wildsound Tour.
\n\nAbou t Lisa Hannigan
\n\nLisa Hannigan first came to lig
ht as an angel-voiced\, somewhat mysterious figure singing harmonies alongs
ide Damien Rice. In 2008\, she self-released her debut Sea Sew\, and the fu
ll spectrum of her abilities shone brightly through. \;
\n
\n
The album was ecstatically received\, garnering nominations for a Choice aw
ard in Ireland and the Mercury Music Prize in the UK. Confidence boosted\,
Hannigan explored deeper\, darker emotions for her follow-up \;Pass
enger\, which came out in 2011. If \;Sea Sew \;bobbed
beautifully on the surface with wide-eyed whimsy\, \;Passenger&nbs
p\;explored the undercurrents of passion and heartache beneath the wav
es. \;
\n
\nThis year\, Hannigan releases \;At Swim
em>\, produced in collaboration with Aaron Dessner of The National. For the
first time\, here is an album by Hannigan that is lush with vocal harmonie
s\, something she shied away from on previous records. If Hannigan ever gav
e us the impression that she was lost at sea\, she&rsquo\;s a strong enough
swimmer now to bring the brightest treasures back for us.
London-born singer
-songwriter\, poet\, composer and producer Patrick Wolf released his first
EP in 2002 at age 18 to a rapturous music press and a rapidly gathering fan
base. Fourteen years later\, he has written and produced six brave and bril
liant critically acclaimed albums while almost constantly touring the globe
. \;
\n
\nIn 2013\, he took a hiatus to set up Studio Adyton\
, where he began recording his new material and also completed his first bo
ok of poetry \;The Ghost Region. He also worked with several m
usicians\, playing viola and Celtic harp with longtime collaborator Patti S
mith on her \;Banga \;tour\, dueting with Anna Calvi\, and
was invited by Yoko Ono to perform at her Southbank Meltdown Festival.&nbs
p\;
\n
\nNow\, he embarks on \;The Wildsound Tour\,
coinciding with a forthcoming double A-side vinyl and download release.
