The beguiling, charming Lisa Hannigan has been nominated for a Mercury Music Prize, the UK's top annual award.. The singer is nominated for her superb Sea Sew album, one of our favourite album's of last year.
Hannigan is nominated alongside:
Florence and the Machine
Kasabian
Speech Debelle
Friendly Fires
La Roux
Bat For Lashes
The Horrors
Glasvegas
Led Bib
Sweet Billy Pilgrom
The Invisible
We only just talked to Miss Hannigan last Friday - see interview in today's Chronicle. Early odds on favourite is English media darling Florence and the Machine, who will take some beating. Lisa is at 18/1 (I'll have some of that thanks!) and Friendly Fires are at 8/1 (tip!).
The winner will be announced on September 4. Lisa Hannigan plays in Daghdha's Church on August 6...
