Hello all three of you who read this!  Sometimes I wonder if anyone reads what I write or listens to the music but at least I feel like I am sharing my discoveries. 

I don't know why I do this but I will see the name of an artist repeatedly and something will stop me from listening to them.  Over and over again I will think that I won't like them so I don't even try.  I did this with Mic Christopher, one of the first artists I put up.  When I finally broke down and listened to him, Sidney Lanier's quote "music is love in search of a word" made sense to me.  My world would have been lessened by not clicking on that link and listening to the song "Heyday" by Christopher.  A similar thing happened recently with the artist Lisa Hannigan.  She is Irish, like Christopher, and actually preformed with him.  I finally watched a concert I found on Youtube with her and James Vincent McMorrow (another wonderfully talented Irish musician worth checking out).  This concert was a brilliant proper introduction to Hannigan.  Her voice is warm and rich and her Irish accent comes through in a wonderful way.  Her voice has an ethereal quality and like all of the other musicians I have talked about her music is true art.  The video I have posted is three songs from the Hannigan/McMorrow concert I mentioned.  Enjoy!
