Biographie de Kate Nash

Kate Nash is an English singer songwriter from London England, who has achieved chart success with her number one album, “Made of Bricks”, which featured the number 2 hit “Foundations”.

Due to an injury in 2005, where she fell down the stairs, breaking her foot, Nash started to record at home. With enough songs to perform a live set, she began to play gigs. It was after she uploaded her music to MySpace when everything fell into place seeing Nash find manager and then producers to work with. She released her first single “Caroline’s a Victim” through Moshi Moshi Records in February 2007 which sold out 3000 copies. The song featured on MTV2 and the B-Side, “Birds” made it to the track list of her debut album, “Made of Bricks”.

Kate Nash signed to Polydor Records in April 2007, and released the single “Foundations” in the June of that year, which shot up the UK Singles Chart, making it to number 2. Nash’s record label decided to bring the release date of the album forward to be released in August 2007. The album reached number 1 in the albums chart, and that same year she went on to perform at many major festivals including Wireless, Bestival and Glastonbury. She also made her television debut on Later… with Jools Holland. The album had by this point been certified Platinum.

Nash released her second album, “My Best Friend is You” on April 19th 2010. It reached similar success to the previous album, making the top 10 in the UK Albums Chart, and charting internationally. The leading single from the album “Do-Wah-Doo” made it to number 15 in the UK Singles Chart.

On March 4th 2013, Kate Nash released “Girl Talk”, her third studio album. Her music had evolved into a much more earthy and garage punk sound. She moved to a different record label called “10p Records”. Unfortunately the album didn’t quite match her chart success, but still made it to the top 100 in the UK, Austria, Germany and Ireland.

In mainstream pop terms, there’s reinvention, and then there’s what Kate Nash has been up to these past few years. As much as you get the impression that she might never fully cast off the Made of Bricks era - the jewel in the crown of which, of course, was the number one single ‘Foundations’ - you can’t help but admire her decision to eschew the sound that made her famous and go all-out riot grrrl instead. Her live performances - not to mention her audiences - have understandably undergone wholesale changes, with the sub-Lily Allen chart fodder of old replaced primarily by tracks from her furious pop-punk record Girl Talk. Now flanked by an all-female band, there’s still some classic cuts in there, albeit with a little more aggression to them - that’s not necessarily a bad thing, especially on sultry Made of Bricks standout ‘Pumpkin Soup’ - but it’s the new material that’s currently seeing Nash really come into her own, with the controversial, Babes in Toyland-channelling single ‘Under-Estimate the Girl’ a set highlight and ‘Grrrl Gang’ - a reworked version of FIDLAR’s ‘Cocaine’ - providing a stirring set closer from one of the braver British artists of recent times.

911 have struck a string in our hearts yet again after successfully touring with 'the Big Reunion Tour.' This tour consisted of past boy and girl pop bands who's fame was short-lived but were given the opportunity to feature in a collective comeback with other past pop bands and tour around the UK and Europe. 911 were one of the golden groups to come out of this tour and have now come of the back of the tour looking to do more dates of their own.

911 are made up 3 male sweethearts, who's rise to fame began right back in 1995. Yes that's right, they are a band born in the ninety's. Pop acts are a product from the 90's and 911 were a really strong boy band of their time. They've had big hits in their time but nothing compares to any of them than their version of heart-felt harmonies Bee Gee's 'More than a woman,' which goes down a treat with the ladies in the crowd.

It's fair to say they've had more reunions than number one hits but that's down to the fact that this band are an awesome boy band to see live. The boy bands that feature in today's pop culture have most definitely learnt a lot from 911 especially how to attract a crowd live. They are the tutors of One Direction.
