Heidi Talbot

With John McCusker & Boo Hewerdine

Having cut her teeth as lead singer with the Irish American all-female outfit Cherish The Ladies, Heidi Talbot is right at home in the twin worlds of Irish traditional and roots music.

Talbot's 2008 CD, In Love + Light, propelled her into the spotlight as a singer with a hunger for lyrically challenging and melodically inventive songs. Produced by Eddi Reader and Boo Hewerdine, In Love + Light set Talbot on an Indie path that celebrated her traditional influences while giving her distinctive voice its own space.

Heidi tours as a trio with multi instrumentalist John McCusker and guitarist Boo Hewerdine.

When not on tour Heidi is in demand as a recording artist, singing on new records by Idlewild, Eddi Reader, and Kris Drever. In Love + Light won an Indie Acoustic Award for best album and Heidi has been nominated for Best Female Vocalist at the 2009 Irish Music Awards.
