"Lille" is the debut solo single by Lisa Hannigan, taken from her award-nominated debut album Sea Sew. It received its world premiere on Tony Fenton's Today FM show on 31 July 2008, demoed on lisahannigan.com and was later released as a free download in Ireland on 25 August 2008.[1]
Lille became an airplay hit on Irish and American radio stations[2] and earned the admiration of the Grammy-nominated Californian singer-songwriter Jason Mraz who invited Hannigan to support him on a 42-date US tour in late 2008.[3] Hannigan then signed with ATO Records in the US, where her album was released in February 2009,[4] although it is currently available from the iTunes store in the US.
Hannigan performed "Lille" on The Late Late Show on 12 September 2008.[5]
The song was also performed at the nominations ceremony of the 2009 Mercury Prize in London when Sea Sew was shortlisted for the award.[6] The performance preceded increased media interest in the singer in the United Kingdom.[6]
The song is featured in the Neil Jordan film Ondine.[7]
