A SINGER hailing from San Francisco will play in Settle as part of her first tour of the UK in five years.
Corrine West will play the Victoria Hall as part of her tour in support of latest album 'Starlight Highway'.
"Starlight is my first completely self-produced record," West said about the sessions. "I wanted to create a body of songs that moved my music in new directions, while paying tribute to the music I have done in the past.
"This influenced my decisions regarding the instrumentation; piano, organ, acoustic rock angles, heavy harmonies, the deep-drive of drums, the laid back floating ballads.”
Corrinne has been a travelling soul since the age of 15 when she left her family home and her school to travel across America in a converted school bus with a band of activists.
West’s latest recording came about after a year-long sabbatical in Austria, which culminated in the new album.
Her powerful and eloquent voice, coupled with the way she weaves her potent songs has earned her popularity in the worlds acoustic roots scene.
The gig at Victoria Hall takes place on June 1.
