History

Two next door neighbors, Australian-born Penelope and Ohio-bred Stephen, an ex dj/producer (Kingsize), blindly began making electronic pop songs together unwittingly creating their acclaimed glitchy debut CD, We Could Connect Or We Could Not. Influenced by the NYC club scene, analog synths, and touring, Lismore dropped the glitches, 2 band members, and 2 long-term relationships, and morphed themselves into a fattened up, laptop-based, rambunctious indie-disco duo. As 'You Aint No Picasso' said: "Lismore sound like a wicked collaboration between Ladytron and Daft Punk."

Lismore has been playing in NYC and extensively touring the US and Canada throughout 2005, 2006, and 2007.
