Kate Nash: Singing oh oh on a Friday night

WHILE TOM MORELLO strums away in his Nightwatchman guise around the corner, British newcomer Kate Nash is sitting backstage in her dressing room at the Sydney Big Day Out matter-of-factly detailing her thrilling year. In the six months since the release of her debut album Made Of Bricks, the 20-year-old North Londoner has topped the UK chart, earned three Brit Award nominations and found time to work on a new album. Right now though, the horror film obsessive is more excited about the prospect of indulging in an activity a little more treacherous than expected from your average pop star.
