“One of the most distinctive voices in pop” (Time Out)
With a voice that “could melt icebergs at 50 paces” (VOX), Briana Corrigan of The Beautiful South is returning to the stage after a 10-year hiatus with a handful of intimate shows throughout the UK and including Northern Ireland.
Belfast-born Corrigan is best known for delivering The Beautiful South’s most successful single, A Little Time, which topped the charts and won a Brit Award. Her unique vocal style and Heaton’s brilliantly acerbic lyrics and catchy melody combined created an unforgettable anthem to broken love.
As a songwriter in her own right, Corrigan has released two critically acclaimed solo albums, enjoying accolades from the likes of Q magazine, “her forte…. chest hugging breast beating balladry of the highest calibre”, “A revelation!” (Melody Maker), “a songwriter of wit and elegance” (Hot Press), “It’s like listening to someone sing you a story. This is a rare opportunity to hear Corrigan’s beautiful vocals up close and personal as she entertains with an evening of story and song. Expect The Beautiful South classics nestled among her own perfectly crafted songs, and some unique takes on traditional favourites, all combining to pack an intimate, heart-warming, emotional, and joyous punch of connection.
