Exclusive: Kate Nash Reveals New Album Details
Kate Nash has spoken exclusively to Xfm about what fans can expect from her new album, the follow-up to to 2007's Xfm New Music Award-nominated 'Made Of Bricks'.
Arriving at yesterday's (May 22) Ivor Novello awards at the Grosvenor House Hotel, Kate Nash revealed that her new album is likely to feature a strong punk influence. Does this mean that hanging around with (her boyfriend Ryan Jarmann's band) The Cribs was rubbing off on her?
"Well, maybe," she replied, "I've always really liked punk music so I think it's something that I always
wanted to get more into."
Punk, however, isn't the only influence that'll be palpable on the new album. Nash also told Xfm that producer, musician
and one time-Feist, Peaches and James Lidell collaborator Gonzalez was on board.
She added: "I'm also really into stuff like The Supremes and Motown. I just want to get stuck in [to the studio]
and see what happens."
Just back from trying to crack the U.S., Nash also spoke enthusiastically of her American sojourn: "American audiences
were really supportive...everyone was really welcoming and I really enjoyed the shows. It was along and crazy time
and I really enjoyed it."
