CORINNE BAILEY RAE
Corinne Bailey Rae is coming to Australia to perform for the first time at Bluesfest in 2017. She will also be heading out on tour, visiting Sydney and Melbourne in April 2017.
With over five million albums sold, two-time Grammy winner Bailey Rae released her self-titled debut album in 2006, reaching number one in the UK and number four in the U.S. The album featured the global hits 'Put Your Records On' and 'Like A Star'.
Originally the front-woman of an indie band, Bailey Rae's music spans electronic, soul and experimental genres. She has completed her highly anticipated third studio album The Heart Speaks In Whispers which debuted at number three on Billboard's R&B chart. Featuring 'Been To The Moon', 'The Skies Will Break' and 'Green Aphrodisiac', NPR named it one of the 30 albums of the year so far. The album has gained worldwide acclaim, garnering four and five-star reviews.
"a fascinating listen, one filled with catharsis and inspiration." - Pitchfork
"What Rae adds to this idealists' songbook is a feminine take that blends dreaminess with nuanced awareness of the heart's hesitations and the need, in life, for clarity... After his death, many fans pointed to Prince's legacy of work with female artists. Rae realizes it here - a woman, not a girl, dreaming in her own colours." - NPR
Bailey Rae is sure to delight audiences with her soaring vocals and impressive stage presence, don't miss her Australian premiere performances.
