2020–present: Second return and touring Australia

edit

In 2020,Taylor Swiftincluded a cover of The Corrs'Breathlessin a setlist of songs by female artists to commemorate women's history month. She described the artists she had chosen as "faraway mentors who taught me how music could make someone's life easier and more magical" and said they had guided her "melodically, lyrically, spiritually and emotionally".[70]

On 26 November 2022, the Corrs performed together for the first time since 2017, playing to a crowd of approximately 11,000 at Hope Estate Winery, in Australia'sHunter Valley,their first concert in Australia in 21 years.[71]The concert was a success, and the Corrs announced on 4 December 2022 that they would tour Australia and New Zealand in October and November 2023 and later added dates in Jakarta, Indonesia and Manila, Philippines.[72][73][74]

Musical style and influences

edit

When asked to describe their genre,Caroline Corrsaid it was a "blend of modern rhythms and technology with acoustic instruments, violin,tin whistle,drums and of course the voices, the marrying of these instruments is our sound ".[75]The Corrs' music is typically categorised as a mixture ofpop rockandfolk rock.This is evident in their first two albums,Forgiven, Not ForgottenandTalk on Corners,although Andrea described the genre ofTalk on Cornersby saying "it [has] got more of an edgy feel, a little bit more guitar-orientated and also an Irish sound, which is inForgiven, Not Forgotten."[76]

In Bluemoved towards mainstream pop, placing heavy emphasis on synthesizers.[20]The move attracted criticism from many; oneEntertainment Weeklycritic called it "a disheartening example of musical ethnic cleansing".[20]AUSA Todaycritic called it "the best mainstream pop album you're likely to come across".[77]

Borrowed Heavenplaced heavier emphasis on guitars, while retaining the original folk rock genre.[52]Homeis a traditional Irish album, where the bandcoveredmany traditional Irish songs.[58]The album contained songs from different eras of Irish music, including a 1982 song written byPhil Lynott( "Old Town" )[60]while the 1,000-year-old "Return to Fingal" featured as a bonus track on the Japanese, limited German and Spanish editions.White Lightreturned to a similar sound toIn Blue,with much more electronic-based instrumentation, whileJupiter Callingis characterised as a more stripped back live performance with minimal overdubbing.

The Corrs' main influences were their parents, who were both musicians[78]and encouraged them to learn instruments. They drew inspiration from musicians such asThe Eagles,The Police,The Carpenters,Simon and GarfunkelandFleetwood Mac,[77]which Sharon said in an interview withCNNis the reason "our songs are very, very melodic and [harmonious]".[78]
