We caught up with singer-songwriter and shiny new CALM ambassador Nadine Shah about her brilliant album Filthy Underneath - the unfiltered account of a turbulent chapter in her life where she struggled with grief, addiction and attempted to take her own life. She spoke about moving forward and releasing her most personal album so far.
Nadine dials in from Amsterdam - buzzing to be on tour with Depeche Mode who she first supported 11 years ago. She feels more ready for arena shows this time round though, armed with her biggest album yet:
“It’s so much fun to play these big silly rooms as we have the songs to fill them now. Even though the subject matter on the album is quite macabre the songs don’t feel like that to play. Greatest Dancer is challenging to sing, it’s real vocal acrobatics and I’m knackered at the end of the set, but it’s cathartic using the full range of my voice.”
