Almost 15 years after The Corrs became an international, multiplatinum sensation with a unique mix of pop songs and traditional Celtic instrumentation, the band of Irish siblings has recorded its first album of traditional Irish music. Produced by Mitchell Froom, Home contains a collection of 13 traditional and modern Irish songs performed by The Corrs.
Recorded not only to please fans who have long clamored for an entire album of Irish music from the group, Home is also a tribute to the group's mother -- Jean -- who died in 1999. Home includes songs that span a millennium of Irish music from "Return to Fingal," a song music scholars say is at least 1,000 years old, to "Old Town," a song written in 1982 by late Thin Lizzy frontman and fellow Irishman Phil Lynott.
