About this concert
[Shelter by Clare O’Riordan]….“Exquisite debut from Cork Chanteuse. Clare O’Riordan has gone against the grain… on a debut that oozes self-assurance.” (Colm O’Hare, Hot Press 2014).With her distinctive dark soulful voice Clare O’Riordan, Cork singer/songwriter and pianist will perform tracks from her 2014 debut album ‘Shelter’ as well as a ‘unique take’ on some quintessential covers. Clare also promises to share a taster of some new songs from her upcoming EP, which she recently started to record in the USA. “Forme, singing for a live audience is the ultimate joy of sharing and celebrating” says Clare. Clare is a soul singer with diverse eclectic influences. Her music is a mixture of piano based balladry and folk, light funk, and smooth jazz with a vocal “reminiscent of Joan Armatrading…” (Colm O Hare, Hot Press). This broad spectrum of styles is highly characteristic of Clare’s approach to songwriting - to write music that defies definition and boundaries, but appeals to the universal. Many tracks from ‘Shelter’ have received significant airplay in particular ‘Angel’, ‘Home’ and "Wild and Free". “Shelter is full of beautiful songs sung with that amazing voice of hers" (Fiachna Ó Braonáin, Late Date, RTE RADIO 1). "Superbly crafted originals.... [Shelter] my 2014 Album of the Year" (Noel Casey, Dublin City FM). “You [Clare] remind me of Joan Armatrading" (Pat Kenny, The Pat Kenny Show 2014, Newstalk 106-108 FM). Website: clareoriordan.com
