At Home with Lisa O'Neill
Verity Sharp hosts a series of conversations and performances recorded at home by songwriters in the UK and abroad. For this episode, it’s the turn of Irish singer Lisa O’Neill.
With summer touring schedules on hold and festivals cancelled, musicians continue to look to their own four walls for inspiration. How are they coping without live audiences? And is this period of restricted movement, stifling or stirring creativity? From her garage studio in Wiltshire, Verity Sharp is dialling up musicians who are rooted in global traditions, exercising their home-recording skills, and asking them to share songs that reflect how they are feeling. In this episode, Lisa O’Neill shares two new songs she’s written since the start of the pandemic and talks about how her priorities in life have changed.
Presented and produced by Verity Sharp.
