"The first day I met him he had me running round the garden trying to find things that I could hit or bash. A whole new world opened up to me. I was like "Music, fuck, wow, there’s so much you can do with it than just an acoustic guitar and a load of people". He’s worked through the eighties, done all the punk stuff and worked with a whole load of people ranging from the Fugees to the Jam. He’s quite into his sounds which is great."

'Personal Touch' may seem apt when considering the closeness of the people working with Naomi. As already mentioned Gavin was introduced via the person Naomi moved in with. Gavin in turn introduced her to Mark who became her manager, who just happens to be her step dad and her mother is her accountant.

There have been times when it’s been difficult working with her step dad, but thankfully it appears not to have affected her music.

"It’s been quite difficult learning how to be in business with someone who is so close to your heart. There was a point when we had to say, "right I’m now talking business" or "I’m now talking personally" but we’ve got through that stage now.

Business, yes, the business of selling music, made that little bit harder now by the new chart ruling that CDs must only contain three tracks.

"I’ve had to do it. I didn’t want to do it because I think it’s a bunch of arse but the record company have said because they are a small indie label they have to be able to compete with other labels."
