Since 2005, she had been taking time out from recording and touring with The Corrs. Andrea Corr's greatest artistic love has been music since the age of 15. Her parents had a band called The Sound Affair and they were on the road for a while. They often played in a pub at weekends. Andrea's dad played keyboards and her mum sang.

The singer learned French while she took time out, and did acting courses.
