The Corrs
The Corrs are an Irish family band consisting of siblings Andrea (lead vocals, tin whistle, mandolin, ukulele), Sharon (violin, keyboards, vocals), Caroline (drums, percussion, piano, bodhrán, vocals) and Jim (guitar, piano, keyboards, vocals). Their music combines pop rock with traditional Irish themes. They are from Dundalk in County Louth, Ireland.
The Corrs have released seven studio albums and numerous singles that have reached Platinum in many countries. They have sold 40 million albums worldwide. Talk on Corners, their most successful album to date, reached multi-Platinum status in Australia. In the UK, it was the highest selling album of the year. The band is one of a small number of acts who have held the top two positions simultaneously in the UK album charts, with Talk on Corners at number one and Forgiven, Not Forgotten at number two. Talk on Corners was the year's third highest selling album in Australia. The band's third studio album, In Blue, went to number one in seventeen countries.
The Corrs have received two Grammy Award nominations, one BRIT Award, and were awarded honorary MBEs in 2005 for their contributions to music and charity. They have been actively involved in philanthropic activities and have performed in numerous charity concerts, such as The Prince's Trust event in 2004 and Live 8 in 2005.
The band was inactive for almost ten years because Jim and Caroline were raising families and Andrea and Sharon were pursuing solo careers while raising families of their own. According to Sharon, it was uncertain if or when the Corrs would reunite. Rumours of a reunion appeared in early 2015, and in a radio interview with Chris Evans in June 2015, Andrea confirmed that the Corrs were working on a new album and would play that year's BBC Radio 2 Live in Hyde Park festival. Their sixth studio album, White Light, was released on 27 November 2015, and was accompanied by a European tour. After two years, their seventh studio album, Jupiter Calling, was released on 10 November 2017.
