Ireland’s reigning musical queen, the truly unique Imelda May, is set to return to the UK this winter for a comprehensive nationwide tour. The tour follows the release of Imelda May’s latest studio album ‘Tribal’, which rocketed to Number 3 in the UK Album Charts and Number 1 in Ireland.
Far from mellowing with her recent motherhood, Imelda sizzles more than ever with her leather-clad attitude. Tribal is as primal a rock 'n' roll record as you could ever find, infused with the spirit of Sun Studios, where the sound was born in Memphis, Tennessee – but given a 21st century twist by a girl from the back streets of Dublin.
“There are no lullabies on this album,” laughs the lady who's brought Rockabilly back into fashion sixty years after it was kicked into life by young men like Carl Perkins and Elvis Presley, Gene Vincent and Jerry Lee Lewis.
