Live At The Cathedral 2023 are delighted to announce The Hoosiers as their headline act on Friday 22 September and the sensational Natalie Imbruglia on Saturday 23 September 2023 performing at Durham Cathedral next year.
The Hoosiers
The multi-platinum success of The Hoosiers 2007 debut album, “The Trick to Life”, and singles such as “Worried About Ray” and “Goodbye Mr. A”, raised huge expectations for its follow-up, not least at The Hoosiers’ record label.
The prophetically titled “The Illusion of Safety” was, all the band agree, a troubled project from the start.
Irwin suggests, “The word ‘hit’ is substituted for ‘good’. There’s an art to writing under those conditions, but it wasn’t one that worked for us. It exacts a toll on too many writers. You give up too much if you do that.”
Such a negative experience of the creative process would have done for many bands, and there was indeed a period where The Hoosiers went their separate ways.
Al said: “I remember getting to this point, where I said, ‘I need some space from this’. I think we all knew it. We needed to forget about it for a while.”
“The News From Nowhere”, released in 2014, was an astonishing return to form.
Irwin said: “Doing it on our own terms, and actually having a proper say in it, felt wonderful. We had nothing to lose, but a lot to prove.”
“The Secret Service” – only a year after their third album – reveals a band hitting their stride through a purple patch; improving as they discover they have more to say than ever.
Natalie Imbruglia
Natalie Imbruglia began a singing career with her cover of Ednaswap’s song “Torn”.
Left of the Middle (her debut album), sold seven million copies worldwide.
Her work has won her eight ARIA Awards, two Brit Awards, one Billboard Music Award, and three Grammy nominations.
Imbruglia served as a spokesperson for Virgin Unite and she campaigns to raise awareness of obstetric fistula.
In June 2021, Imbruglia announced the she would release her single “Build It Better”. It’s the first single from her sixth studio album Firebird (2021). This album represents a return to music after six years, in which she says she experienced “writer’s block.”
Natalie Imbruglia also won the third series of The Masked Singer UK as “Panda.”
Natalie went on tour in October 2022, celebrating 25 years of debut album ‘Left of The Middle’.
