The Corrs are not forgotten as they light up Live at the Marquee

The Corrs are living proof that absence really does make the heart grow fonder, enjoying the kind of enraptured response that only a lengthy break can create.

This was the band’s first Cork performance since their two brief visits in 1996, and what a full-on show it turned out to be, despite the fact the venue was busy but not packed.

They played all the hits that delivered 45 million global record sales, some fine new material that plays well live and plenty of excellent musicianship, with some great stomping Irish trad moments.
