Corinne Drewery (1959) is an English singer-songwriter and
fashion designer, best known for being the lead vocalist of the band Swing Out
Sister.
Drewery moved to London after leaving school in 1976 to
study fashion at the Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design and
eventually became a fashion designer. But she also sang for short periods with
bands like Working Week.
She first met Andy Connell and Martin Jackson in 1984 and
together they formed Swing Out Sister, who in 1986-87 achieved enormous chart
success at both sides of the Atlantic with "Breakout". This became
the band's signature song and by far their most successful hit.
Apart from singing the lead vocals in the band, she is the
band's lyricist, and participates in the composing of the songs together with
her musical partner Connell.
