UK Sensation Kate Nash to Release Foundations EP in America September 4th

UK Sensation Kate Nash to Release Foundations EP in America September 4th

DEBUT ALBUM 'MADE OF BRICKS' TO SEE U.S. RELEASE ON GEFFEN RECORDS IN EARLY 2008

SANTA MONICA, Calif., Aug. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- At just 20 years old Kate Nash is taking the UK by storm and now has her eyes set on America. It's been quite a year for the young singer from suburban Harrow, UK who wrote most of her debut UK release while recuperating after breaking her foot from a fall down a flight of stairs. "My Mum and Dad bought me a guitar to perk me up because I couldn't do anything. So I spent three weeks writing and recording with it on my laptop, I was itching to do something creative," say Kate. The result is "Made of Bricks," an album the New York Times discovered and recently reviewed with praise for Nash.

With her first single "Foundations" debuting at #2 on the UK singles chart & #1 on the UK iTunes chart Fiction Records pushed the release of her debut album "Made of Bricks" up 5 weeks to August 6th and it debuted at #1 on the UK charts. Geffen Records will release the "Foundations EP" via all digital outlets on September 4th. This EP will include Kate's hit single "Foundations," and her debut cult single "Caroline's a Victim," along with two b-sides "Navy Taxi," and "Habanera" as well as the video for "Foundations." "Made of Bricks" will see its U.S. release on Geffen Records in early 2008.

Kate counts Lily Allen and Prince among her fans. And the UK media has lauded its praise upon the young girl with the "Daily Mail" stating, "One of the most exciting talents to emerge this year ... refreshingly homespun and diverse," and NME saying "She's a unique talent ... the sweet yet savvy new troubadour of teenage street-life."

Kate will make some time to bring her songs to the states performing a few gigs in the New York areas at the end of September:

September 25th New York, NY Joe's Pub
September 26th Brooklyn, NY Luna
