Belinda O'Hooley (born 18 July 1971) is a singer-songwriter and pianist from Yorkshire, England. Formerly a member of Rachel Unthank and the Winterset (now The Unthanks), she now records and performs as O'Hooley & Tidow with her wife Heidi Tidow (pronounced Tee-doe).
O'Hooley, who has Irish roots, was born in Horsforth, Leeds, grew up in Guiseley and went to school in Menston. She studied behavioural sciences at the University of Huddersfield.
O'Hooley comes from a long line of County Sligo musicians and performed alongside her first cousin Tommy Fleming, a singer who was formerly with De Dannan.
From 2004 until 2008 she was a member of Rachel Unthank and the Winterset (now The Unthanks). Nic Oliver, reviewing their 2007 album The Bairns for musicOMH, described O'Hooley as "the ace in the pack throughout The Bairns. Her background in cabaret (intriguingly, she had once appeared on Stars In Their Eyes impersonating Annie Lennox) adds a left-field edge to the music, with her jazzy piano chords lending a sing-along feel to the live favourite Blue's Gaen Oot O'The Fashion. O'Hooley also contributes the two original tracks to the album, although the casual listener could quite easily mistake both Blackbird and Whitehorn for traditional songs".
In 2005 O'Hooley released a solo album, Music is My Silence, described by reviewer David Kidman of Netrhythms.co.uk as "a commanding and defiant set of thoroughly contemporary-sounding songs" and by FATEA as "a highly polished collection of songs that gently sway between folk and jazz".
In 2019 she released a second solo album, Inversions, described by Jude Rogers in The Guardian as "a set of beautiful piano and spoken-word pieces".
She has issued eight albums with Heidi Tidow, performing as O'Hooley & Tidow. Their 2016 album, Shadows, was given a five-starred review by Robin Denselow in The Guardian and four of their other albums have received four-starred reviews in the British national press.
With Heidi Tidow she performs in the all-female group Coven, whose members also include Hannah James, Rowan Rheingans, Hazel Askew and Grace Petrie. In 2017, Coven released an EP, Unholy Choir.
O'Hooley played piano on Jackie Oates' albums Jackie Oates (2006), The Violet Hour (2008), Hyperboreans (2009), Saturnine (2011) and Lullabies (2013). With Heidi Tidow, she was also featured on Chumbawamba's album ABCDEFG (2010) and DVD Going, Going – Live at Leeds City Varieties (2012), Lucy Ward's debut album Adelphi Has to Fly (2011) and Patsy Matheson's Domino Girls (2014).
O'Hooley & Tidow were amongst the musicians on the album The Ballads of Child Migration: Songs for Britain's Child Migrants, released by Delphonic Records in October 2015. They contributed the music for one song on the album, "Why Did I Leave Thee?"
O'Hooley also accompanied Nic Jones at London's Queen Elizabeth Hall on his 2011 comeback tour and on further tours in 2012 and 2013. In 2015 O'Hooley accompanied Jim Boyes on his Sensations of a Wound tour, telling a little-known story of the First World War. An album of this music, Sensations of a Wound: The Long, Long Trail of Robert Riby Boyes, was released on the No Masters label in February 2015.
She appeared on Ray Hearne's album Umpteen in 2016.
She had a small acting role as a plain-clothes police inspector in episode 1 of season 3 of Happy Valley, the TV programme created by Sally Wainwright who also created the TV series Gentleman Jack.
Her name is one of those featured on the sculpture Ribbons, unveiled in 2024.
Belinda O'Hooley's recordings with Heidi Tidow are listed at O'Hooley & Tidow.
Belinda O'Hooley and her wife Heidi Tidow, who married in 2016, live in Marsden, West Yorkshire. They have a son, Flynn, born in September 2019.
