Irish superstar Imelda to visit Warrington

IRISH superstar Imelda May has added extra dates to her upcoming tour due to phenomenal demand – and Warrington’s one of them.
The singer-songwriter will be hitting the road in November and the tour includes a headline show at London’s iconic Royal Albert Hall, where she supported The Who in April in aid of the Teenage Cancer Trust.
Imelda’s new single Girl I Used to Be, out now, is taken from her top five new album Life. Love. Flesh. Blood and follows the BBC Radio 2-playlisted singles Call Me, Black Tears and Should’ve Been You.
A hauntingly beautiful acoustic ballad, Girl I Used To Be, is a memoir of Imelda’s life growing up in the Liberties area of Dublin and the lessons learned which she will pass on to her daughter.
She said: “I love those old story songs where you’re taken on a journey from beginning to end.
“Songs you’re riveted with, like when you’re in the car and you sit in the driveway because you can’t turn the radio off, you have to listen to the end of the story.
“The lyrics are about my family and my daughter, and myself and my life growing up in Dublin.
“We didn’t have much money but my parents are fabulous, creative and open-minded people; they gave me art and literature and encouraged me to do whatever was in my heart, and I want to do that with my daughter.”
Tickets to the show at Parr Hall  on Monday, November 13 go on sale this Friday at 10am.
