After a four-year hiatus, Grammy award-winning Irish singer-songwriter Sinéad O’Connor is touring again. The public can see her perform at Akvárium’s Main Hall on 9 December.
She gained sudden popularity with her self-produced album The Lion and the Cobra in 1987, which she recorded while expecting her first child. The bald, unruly singer became instantly recognisable wherever she went.
This was followed by her cover of Prince’s Nothing Compares 2 U in 1990, which raced to the top of the charts, turning her into a globally acclaimed singer. Over the following three decades, she has tried her hands at a range of different styles from Irish folk music to reggae and alternative rock. Sinéad O’Connor is known for her strong opinions on social, religious and human rights-related issues.
