Clash One to Watch #464/NME Buzz Artist: Nadine Shah

I wrote these bits  for clash about Nadine Shah, who is just fantastic (includes Shirley Bassey references and some Cheryl Cole aggression, a precursor to when she did that racist attack on a toilet attendant in Guildford before she became England's rose and then America's most short-lived X-Factor judge - Cheryl, not Nadine).

"What Shah's music really shares with the members of that venerable roll call is a rich and at times devastating emotional intensity – that and occasional hints of a Bassey-esque snarl."

As well as the Clash piece, a short piece I wrote on Nadine coincidentally appeared in the NME on the same day. Here's the scan:

Now go and give Nadine's EP 'Aching Bones' a listen.
