Sinead o ConnorSinead O'Connor – Both icon and iconoclast, Sinead O'Connor has been rejecting stereotypes and defying expectations for more than 20 years. In 1987 she wrote, recorded and released The Lion and The Cobra, which Rolling Stone called “easily one of the most distinctive debut albums of the year” and charted with her first alternative hits “Mandinka", "Troy" and "I Want Your (Hands On Me)".

In 1990, her sophomore album, I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got, peaked at number one on the Billboard Top 200 while her Prince-penned single "Nothing Compares 2 U" earned her a Grammy for Best Alternative Music Performance. Her clean-shaven head, ferocity of intelligence and dignified persona established a new template for women in popular music and culture. 

Two decades after she first began transforming the pop cultural landscape with her debut, O'Connor continues to delight and surprise, challenge and inspire with the sound of her voice and the power of her music on her latest album Theology, a double album presenting songs in both stripped down (‘Dublin Sessions’) and full band (‘London Sessions’) form.
