There is more to Ireland than Guinness and shamrocks. Lisa Dees music is like a breath of fresh air in the world of Hip Hop.
Lisa Doyle (Dee), born in Dublin, developed a passion for music at a very young age. Lisa's love for Hip Hop began in the early 90s as she quickly became addicted to rap show Yo MTV Raps. I remember staying up late on a school night to watch Yo MTV Raps and thinking I want to do that one day.
Lisa began practising her songwriting skills while still on the school benches. I loved poetry at school, so I guess that is where my interest in rapping came from, she confesses. Shortly after, Lisa helped form a rap group called Back 2 Basix. On stage we wore our jeans backwards like Kris Kross, a lot of kids thought we were strange because dance music was the craze at the time not Hip Hop.
In 1999 Lisas collaboration with producer Glen Brady led to the formation of the Hip Hop act Third Eye Surfers. Their album Filthy Folklore, released in 2001, was recorded in Glens studio on the Southside of Dublin.
Rapidly getting recognition on the Irish Hip Hop scene and being labelled as the hottest new thing, Third Eye Surfers followed their album success with a 12 vinyl Third Eye Mindstate, which landed them a Best Newcomer Award at the Smirnoff Dance Awards in the Temple Theatre, Dublin. Lisa Dees day was made even more special by an unexpected visit: I remember the Edge from U2 sitting in the front row, while we performed, that made me nervous as I love
