Singer-Songwriter Kate Nash, whose debut album Made Of Bricks finally arrived on US shores last month (and inspired shrugs at MFR) will be launching her first North American tour. The jaunt will be sponsored by British mag NME. Nash told the venerable magazine that “It’s pretty cool to be touring America, I’m really excited, I can’t wait...I’m really looking forward to playing Chicago and the places I’ve never been because it’ll be really fun to explore America a bit more.”
