Corinne Bailey Rae: Why I live for Leeds
Singer songwriter Corinne Bailey Rae on why she's chosen to stay in Leeds, her home city, to live and work. Corinne Bailey Rae grew up in Leeds, the eldest of three girls. In her teens, after initially starting out on the violin, a youth leader bought her a guitar and encouraged her to form a band. But it was as a solo artist that she found fame - quickly - with Put Your Records On. She explains how her sense of belonging and identity are grounded in the city of Leeds.
First broadcast on Living for the City, 11 September 2018.
