Charlie Dore with Julian Littman :: FOLK

Multi award-winning singer & songwriter of worldwide hits
A gift for melody, brave, poignant, entertaining, original The Guardian
On tour with the celebrated multi-instrumentalist Julian Littman
Charlie Dores songs have been recorded by the good and the great including George Harrison, Tina Turner, Celine Dion, Jimmy Nail and Ricky Ross, but her live shows reveal that actually she keeps the best songs for herself.
As one of the UKs most respected songwriters her own albums, described as eclectic contemporary folk with crunchy lyrics continue to win awards both sides of the Atlantic, most recently Female Vocalist Of The Year (FATEA, 2020) and Best Lyrics (Like Animals ,US Indie Acoustic, 2021). Charlie has also played major festivals including Glastonbury, Celtic Connections, Cropredy, Shrewsbury Folk and Ventnor as well as appearing at some of the UKs most prestigious venues including Kings Place and Liverpool Philharmonic.
For her 10th and most recent album Like Animals she turns away from the expansive science and space metaphors of 2017s Dark Matter to focus on the internal landscape of the human brain and just what makes us tick. Sewn-through with Dores trademark dark wit, lyricism, and distinctive melodic voice, Like Animals explores some of our most basic instincts and how were often hi-jacked by our emotional responses.
A voice like Kate McGarrigle meets Dory Previn. Wonderful.
Mike Harding
This sublime albumearnest and witty, tender and cynical all at the same time profound, moving and oddly haunting.
