Formerly lead singer with Irish American all-female outfit Cherish
The Ladies, Heidi Talbot is right at home in the twin worlds of Irish
traditional and roots music. Talbot’s 2008 CD, In Love + Light,
propelled her into the spotlight as a singer with a hunger for lyrically
challenging and melodically inventive songs. Produced by Eddi
Reader regular Boo Hewerdine, In Love + Light set Talbot on a path
that celebrated her traditional influences while giving her distinctive
voice its own space.
Heidi is no box-ticking singer in search of a cosy lounging space, but
an artist invigorated by the search for alternative ways of inhabiting
a song. Heidi tours as a trio with multi instrumentalist John
McCusker and guitarist Boo Hewerdine. As well as her own sold out
concerts and festival performances, she tours extensively with new
folk supergroup Drever, McCusker and Woomble.
For her first headline show in Belfast, Heidi will present songs from
In Love + Light and her acclaimed new album The Last Star.
