Full Review

It has been 10 years since Belinda and Heidi started writing songs and singing together as OHooley & Tidow. And what a decade. This album; recorded live just before lockdown at the beautiful St Georges Bristol, showcases a clutch of songs that tell stories about something or someone that has affected the duo in a deep and moving way. They feel intensely privileged to be able to sing about interesting and inspiring characters such as Beryl Burton, Anne Lister, Ronnie and many others who have given them, and hopefully their listeners, inspiration. Each song has been their baby at some point, carefully nurtured through the gentle process of contemplating, writing words, coming up with melodies and chords, and working on an arrangement. They have all over the years taken on new life and meaning with the many and varied audiences the duo shared them with along the way. The album is dedicated to their little boy, Flynn, who grew in Heidis belly listening to these songs, and who is very much a central part of this and every tour. Thank you for being a part of their journey so far.
