Global stars The Corrs and special guest Natalie Imbruglia will play two massive outdoor shows in Yorkshire next summer.
The Irish Celtic infused pop icons will headline TK Maxx presents Scarborough Open Air Theatre on Wednesday June 11 before heading to Halifax to headline TK Maxx presents Live at The Piece Hall on Thursday June 12.
Tickets for both shows go on general sale at 9am on Friday December 13 from ticketmaster.co.uk
The Corrs are Ireland’s first family of music, a multi-million selling sibling quartet who have conquered the world with a seamless blend of sleek pop rock, lush harmonies and Celtic folk trimmings.
Comprising Andrea (lead vocals, piano, tin whistle), Sharon (violin, piano, vocals), Caroline (drums, piano, vocals) and Jim (guitar, keyboards, vocals), The Corrs have sold more than 40 million albums since their debut Forgiven, Not Forgotten in 1995, spawning a dozen classic hit singles.
An enchanting mix of traditional Celtic music with a pop rock twist, The Corrs have written some of the biggest songs of the last three decades.
Forgiven, Not Forgotten gave us the incredible title track, the exquisite Heaven Knows and of course, arguably one of the biggest contemporary songs of the modern era, Runaway.
Their second album, Talk On Corners led with I Never Loved You Anyway, So Young and Only When I Sleep and is their biggest selling album to date.
The Corrs 2005 album, Home, was dedicated to their mother, and focused on traditional Irish songs.
The group took a hiatus after Home, to concentrate on raising families. By early 2015, they resumed writing sessions together and returned to action with huge global tours in a period that has seen them release two of their most mature albums, White Light (2015) and the T Bone Burnett produced Jupiter Calling (2017).
The Corrs recent Arena tour saw sold out shows across the UK and Ireland and the group cannot wait to return to the stage in 2025, including what promises to be two incredible nights in Yorkshire.
Special guest Natalie Imbruglia rose to fame in the mid-1990s for her role in the Australian TV soap Neighbours, before embarking on a hugely successful music career, releasing her debut album Left of the Middle in 1997. The album’s lead single Torn became an international hit, topping charts worldwide.
Natalie, who has released six studio albums to date and has sold more than 10 million copies worldwide, has received various accolades, including eight ARIA Awards, two BRIT Awards, one Billboard Music Award, one Silver Clef Award and three GRAMMY nominations.
She was crowned the winner of series three of The Masked Singer in the UK and recently appeared in the US version of the hit show.
The Corrs join Gary Barlow, Basement Jaxx, Pendulum, Rag’n’Bone Man, Blossoms, Shed Seven, Texas, UB40 featuring Ali Campbell and The Script among the headliners already announced for TK Maxx presents Scarborough Open Air Theatre 2025.
Scarborough OAT venue programmer Julian Murray, of promoters Cuffe and Taylor, said: “The Corrs have written some of the biggest hits of the last 30 years, are sensational live and we are delighted to add them to our headliners for next summer.
“Their current arena tour is just brilliant and we know fans are going to enjoy seeing Andrea, Sharon, Caroline and Jim take to the stage at the stunning Scarborough OAT for what promises to be an incredible show here on the Yorkshire coast.”
The Corrs join the likes of Travis, Paul Heaton, Weezer, Gary Barlow, The Teskey Brothers, Faithless, Texas, Supergrass, The Libertines, Simple Minds, Khruangbin, Olly Murs and Rag’n’Bone Man, among the headliners announced for TK Maxx presents Live at The Piece Hall 2025.
Nicky Chance-Tompson MBE DL, CEO of The Piece Hall Charitable Trust, said: “No one combines that classic Celtic sound with the catchiest of pop melodies like The Corrs. I know there’ll be some really magical singalong moments in our beautiful courtyard when we welcome Ireland’s finest musical family to Calderdale.”
