Earlier in the year Lisa released a single which features vocals from Libertines’ Peter Doherty - ‘Homeless In The Thousands (Dublin in the Digital Age)’ - a song Lisa felt compelled to write in response to the growing issue of homelessness in Dublin. This is not the first time O’Neill has written about social injustices on the cusp of a change. Songs like Rock the Machine about unemployment in the Dublin dock lands, When Cash Was King about the move to a cashless society and Violet Gibson about the Irish woman who attempted to assassinate Mussolini in 1926.
“Giving voice to the disenfranchised is something she does so well, with a particular affinity for women – “Woman is powerful when not restricted”- she says…. And she is emblematic of this, with a free singularity that can fold in difficult subjects, such as homelessness…”. The Irish Times – live Gate Theatre review
“The Cavan songwriter has grown in stature in recent years as a valued chronicler of the disenfranchised. Songs of social, political and cultural issues preoccupy her as she proves as adept a storyteller as the playwrights long associated with this room.” The Sunday Business Post - live Gate Theatre review
Jarvis Cocker has invited Lisa to appear at the Pulp Tramlines Festival on July 25th in Sheffield, she will also be joining The Pogues in the UK as a special guest singer with their Rum, Sodomy & The Lash Tour in May.
Lisa is currently writing new material for her next album.
