Andrea Corr has embarked on a new solo career leaving her siblings behind. While the rest of The Corrs have taken a break from the group to raise their families, Andrea has decided to return to the music industry with a new and fresh sound.

Her record ‘Ten Feet High’ was released last summer and had success in Spain where it reached number 9 in the music charts. Meanwhile, the rest of Europe did not respond in the same way, and her record only reached number 38 in the UK album charts. The first single from the album is still receiving good radio-play in Spain - the track called ‘Shame on you (to keep my love from me)’ is an anti-war protest disguised as an upbeat dance tune. The album has a different vibe to it and is very different to the stuff she did with The Corrs.

We feature the rise, the golden era and relative decline in popularity of The Corrs, Andrea speaking on how the album came about and how we explain the album’s cool reception in most countries.
