From an early age Naomi
has been writing songs.
"I wrote my first song when I was eleven it’s called
'Womb'," admits Naomi. "I first played it to my grandparents
and they were so shocked. They were like "Oh darling that’s
lovely", but you could see them gritting their teeth."
Though now grown up, those PR peeps are muttering comparisons
of her debut single 'Personal Touch' to Janis Joplin and Alanis
Morisette, which cant be bad.
The young artiste recently signed to Gut and admits that whilst
her new label mates, Space are genuinely good guys, chances
of a supporting them would be a long way off.
"They are really great guys, good fun, great music but
it’s probably not a good idea," she explains smiling.
With the album completed, PR workers primed, a new tour starting
just as one has finished, work underway on the video for the
next single 'Be My Lover'. The self-confessed slightly tired
Naomi seems excited when discussing the prospect of more touring.
"We’ve just finished a little northern tour, which
was like Glasgow, Leeds and York amongst other places which
was great. Now we have this tour. The first single 'Personal
Touch' has gone to America now. So we’re hoping to, fingers
crossed, be running around the desert selling a few songs. I’m
not too worried about success. I think it’s one of those
things that is either going to happen or it’s not. It’s
not my main goal. My goal is to travel basically and just enjoy
it."
Naomi isn’t au fait to the idea of running around in open
spaces.
"I met my producer Gavin Moynihan, through a person I lived
with," she begins to explain. >>
