- Formed in: Dundalk, County Louth, Ireland
- Band Members: Andrea Corr, Sharon Corr, Caroline Corr, Jim Corr
- Years Active: 1990s-2000s
- Genre: Pop
Comprising three sisters and one brother of the Corr family, the Corrs blend the music of their Irish background with contemporary pop/rock and occasional use of synthesizers. The quartet formed in 1991, and was confined to regional popularity in Ireland until 1994, when the American ambassador to the country invited the Corrs to perform at the 1994 World Cup in Boston. The attraction led to a support slot on Celine Dion's 1996 tour. The Corrs' debut album, Forgiven, Not Forgotten, became internationally popular, but nowhere more so than their homeland, where the LP's four-times-platinum status made it one of the most popular debuts by an Irish group. ~ John Bush, Rovi
