O2 Making Waves - Lisa Hake

Aspiring San Francisco born singer-songwriter Lisa Hake first came to
Ireland last year to write her album and hasn't left since. Her captivating lyrics
are jammed with myths, tales and riddles and inspired while sitting around peat fires
on Achill Island. Now the former eye surgeon has taken up residency here and is
captivating audiences around the country with her mellifluous voice, soft melodies
and introspective stories. Her music has been described as 'Celtadelic folk' a marriage
of 'San Francisco psychedelia with Irish root music' and she credits Ireland's
'natural language' of music as a main influence.
Lisa plays intricate finger style acoustic guitar in alternative tunings and
her preferred intimate gigs guarantee an assured performer and imaginative storyteller.
