Damien Rice is an amazing artist with great talent. His voice and his style stand in a class of their own. Another great thing about Damien is that he’s worked closely with Lisa Hannigan on a lot of his tracks. Putting these two artists in the same room is like putting early Simon and Garfunkel together.
I’m not sure if these tracks, like yesterday’s post about Simon and Garfunkel, actually qualify as Christmas music but seeing as how this is my blog, and I don’t really care, I can post whatever I feel like. So here’s some tracks from Mr. Rice. Enjoy the tunes.
mp3 : Damien Rice - Happy Christmas (War Is Over) (Live on KCRW)
mp3 : Damien Rice and Lisa Hannigan - Silent Night
This reworking of Silent Night is particularly amazing. Definitely give it a listen if you haven’t already.
