So This girl is amazing! I saw her perform yesterday at Middlesbrough Music Live at the Cosmos Stage (upstairs at the central) and she was amazing. Her name is Nadine Shah, she's from Whitburn in the north east near the sea and she's half Pakistani and half Norwegian...Beautiful. Still got a geordie accent like! I can't her music was folkey, alternative, moody, intense, intricate, and beautiful. She reminded me of regina spektor in that she had a folkey cultural influence thing going on, at the beginning of her set she did this vocal solo intro that reminded me of a middle eastern woman singing with all the intricate vocal riffs and trills! it was amazing. she said in between her songs that she was glad it was raining outside or 'this' (her songs) wouldn't really have fit in. which may have been true, they were quite moody but non the less stunning. I would definitely recommend seeing this girl live so you can experience what I did! this song in particular was lovely Even The Duke, haunting.
So...
