With a voice that ‘could melt icebergs at 50 paces’ (VOX), Belfast born Briana Corrigan is best known for delivering The Beautiful South’s most successful single, the chart topping, No1, Brit award-winning A Little Time where her unique vocal – ‘one of the most distinctive voices in pop’ (Time Out) and Paul Heaton’s brilliantly acerbic lyrics and catchy melody combined to create an unforgettable anthem to broken love.
As a songwriter in her own right, Corrigan has released 2 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. The rain outside is drifting along the glass and this is a good soundtrack to the tale of its falling’ (Melody Maker)
This is a rare opportunity to hear Corrigan’s ‘stupendous vocal’ (NME) up close and personal as she entertains with an evening of story and song. Expect Beautiful South classics, nestled among her own beautifully crafted songs and some unique takes on traditional favourites all combining to pack an intimate, heart-warming, emotional and joyous punch of connection.
