I knew there was a reason....

....that I've always been rather fond of Kate Nash aside from her music.....

An avowed feminist, Nash makes it a point of principle to work with female sound engineers and roadies wherever possible. "It's really important to be a strong role model. It's one of my main things because I feel I've been exposed in such an extreme way to a lot of sexism. I've become aware of being in a very male-dominated industry where a door opens and it's like, 'Oh hello, it's 12 men and me. Again.'"
