REVIEW BY: Tammy Childs

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED: 02/21/2005

Some families are just musically inclined, and have been forgenerations -- like the Corrs.

The Corr children -- three sisters and a brother -- were raisedin a community full of pubs and live music; both parents playedballads and folk tunes in local bands. With encouragement at home,the children soon began to participate in their own musical way.Jim learned piano, keyboards and guitar. Sharon began on the pianoand advanced to the violin. Caroline mastered the complicatedbodhran and the drums. Andrea, like the other children, was taughtthe piano, but because everyone was always fighting over the piano,she pursued the tin whistle (a small Irish flute), and added hervocals to the wealth of family talents.

Eventually the flourishing talents of the four childrenculminated into the group The Corrs. Classified as an Irishpop-rock band, they blend the traditional with the modern. They areproud of the results although they continue to try to rise abovethe self-imposed standards.

Their sound is unique and was well-received by this reviewer. Forgiven, Not Forgotten -- their first album -- wentmulti-platinum in Canada, Ireland, Australia, Spain, New Zealand,Denmark and the UK, and gold almost everywhere else.
