Listen Lisse is something that started out as a solo project with Lisa McKendrick on vocals and guitar, since then it has evolved into a duo and is even more intense than before...the music reaches it's highs and lows while different personas reveal themselves in the lyrics of the songs all of which tell a different side of a story, because Lisa belives that song writing is about telling stories about herself and other people. In June 2007 Listen Lisse released a solo album called “It’s Not You” which is a combination of different songs which are moody and atmospheric but also energetic. The sound is filled out with a combination of instruments : the tambourine, violin and synths, while music engineer Gary Sansom added the electronic drums. "I recorded them wanting to leave in little human errors and rebelled against highly produced mainstream music, I wanted it to be raw and unnerving but also to have a soothing kind of beauty"
