What did I know then? Eleven years on from the official breakup of Catatonia and five after her unexpected I'm a Celebrity appearance Matthews certainly knows a lot more about the blues.

There were times when she disappeared from view favouring anonymity to when she was plastered across the tabloids during the Britpop years.

Her bouncy energetic stage presence endears the crowd to her further and she breezes through a set which airs material from forthcoming album 'Never Said Goodbye' as well as highlights from 2003's Americana tinged album 'Cockahoop'.

In my mind it's her finest solo album to date and her best collection of songs since Catatonia's International Velvet.
