7 April 2025 - Kate Nash - Life In Pink

It's rare that I have a theme for a week and blow it before the first post.  

My theme was - Artists that I've Never Posted Before. 

And, while it's true that I have personally not written a Kate Nash post, Scott did.  

So, screw that theme for the week. 

This song was a single from her fourth album, 2018's Yesterday Was Forever, a Kickstarter-funded project that combines her riot grrl tendencies with some indie folk-rock sounds.   The album's themes revolve around her mental health, which she clearly addresses in this song AND the video. 

And yes, this was released during her time on GLOW


I mentioned that the album was Kickstarter-funded.   It took her five years to record and release the album, and the songs didn't magically materialize in 2018.   No, in fact, this is a live performance from 2016, one of her first of this song.  It's a little different, but not dramatically. 


But, like the song didn't materialize in 2018, it also didn't disappear, and she still performs it live - and it is a crowd favorite.
