Kate Nash doesn't want to write an album about herself.

The 'Foundations' singer - who is dating The Cribs rocker Ryan Jarman - is currently working on the follow-up to her debut album 'Made Of Bricks' and insists she won't be penning a record filled with tracks about her relationship.

I've got about like 10 songs down and when I listen to them together I feel pleased because I've got melodies and stuff that feels girl groupy, then I've also got stuff that has got a bit of a harder edge

She said: "I think you should always have roughness in there because it's quite human.

"Yeah, obviously, I'm happy in a relationship and it's really nice, and it's good to write about love and stuff, but I think you can always characterise different things.

"There are a couple of tracks that are quite nice but I want to keep raw stuff in there, because it should never just be about you - you shouldn't be self-indulgent about things."

Kate says she is pleased with the "girl groupy" sound her rehearsal sessions for the new songs have brought out so far.

She added: "I've got this rehearsal room - I've booked it out for six months - and it's good, because I can go in there whenever I want and there's a piano in there and drums.
