Nerina Pallot
Everybody's Gone to War

Idaho

WE SAY

Nerina's Dear Frustrated Superstar was one of the best albums of 2001 and the campaign (on Polydor) ended prematurely without the best tracks having been released as singles. So we're delighted that Nerina is back, still published and strongly supported by Jeremy Lascelles at Chrysalis but now managed by Ron Stone (Bonnie Raitt etc - and America is an obvious country for Nerina's music so American management makes sense). Everybody's Gone To War is a great, radio friendly, Sheryl Crow-influenced pop record with depth, and it was recently added to the Radio 2 C list. Thanks to Neil McCormick of the Telegraph and our friends at the Hit Sheet for helping us track it down.
