Supermarket singer on Turner prize shortlist

A WOMAN known for singing through a PA system at a branch of Tesco has been shortlisted for this year’s Turner Prize.

Susan Philipsz is one of four artists in the running for the controversial contemporary arts prize.

The Glasgow-born 44-year-old is best known for recording herself singing versions of pop and folk songs which she has replayed in stairwells, supermarkets, and under bridges.
