Kate Nash - Do Wah Doo
Depending on your point of view, age or ability to decipher decent music you’re either awaiting the return of Kate Nash with open arms, or a rather large firearm loaded with cartridges. While not half as annoying as her previous efforts such as ‘Foundations’ or ‘Pumpkin Soup’, this is more of the same radio friendly tosh that somehow made her famous. Featuring some truly cringe-worthy lyrics (‘Everyone thinks that girl’s a lady/But I don’t, I think that girl’s shady’ a prime example) it will no doubt be bothering the top ten shortly, so a massive thanks in advance to everyone who downloads it. Satan will be round for your souls shortly.
Our Verdict : 2/5

Kate Nash
Kate Marie Nash (born 6 July 1987) is an English singer and songwriter based in London. She had a UK #2 hit "Foundations" in 2007, followed by the platinum selling UK number 1 album Made of Bricks. She was named Best Female Artist at the 2008 BRIT Awards. In 2009 she became part of a new band called The Receeders. So far, she and the band have recorded four songs and headlined at a London gig on 17 December 2009. Despite being part of the band, she has finished recording her second solo album and still plans for it to be released in 2010. Since early 2007, she has been in a relationship with Ryan Jarman, vocalist and guitarist of English indie rock band The Cribs. On September 2, 2009, Nash began using her MySpace and Facebook pages to help spread the word of a young girl called Tilly who lost her hands due to Meningococcal disease. She used an auction on eBay to help donate money to the five-year-old girl's parents so that she can afford to have her very own pair of hands. As a side project in late 2009, Kate joined a punk band called The Receeders where she plays bass. On 17 December 2009 the band played a live gig on the stage of 93 East Feet. Kate likes to refer to the band as her "side project" as she says for 2010 she will be mainly focusing on her solo material. Nash is scheduled to take part in the 2010 V Festival and the revived Lilith Fair and touring music festival. Nash is a founding director of the Featured Artists Coalition.
