Kate Nash has done more in her first year on the scene than many pop songstresses achieve in a career. The playful, Cockney-drawling singer-songwriter began her craft writing songs as course load at the BRIT School for Performing Arts and Technology. Soon she started gigging, her early recordings posted to MySpace, and an inclusion in Lily Allen’s Top 8 MySpace friends built an early grassroots following that helped her release her first single “Caroline’s a Victim.” The relaxed video found heavy airplay on MTV2, and her next single, “Foundations,” helped Nash break into the scene like a stray roman candle, landing on BBC Radio 1 playlists and festivals like Glastonbury and Reading and Leeds. Where the future for this fast-rising star leads, no one knows, but Kate Nash is definitely making believers every day.
