You have shot to fame quite quickly how are you finding all the attention?
I love it! (laughs) I have always been like that I'm the biggest attention seeker you'll know. it's so much fun, I haven't had any problems yet, you get some weird people but I don't mind it's quite funny.
It's really surreal, I had been back a week from Cannes and I already had three fan sites on the Internet it was like hang on this isn't real I had to keep pinching myself.
Your debut album Whatever Happened to Romance did really well how did you find the recording process?
It was really fun we did it all kind of live so we just went in the studio for four months one summer. It was really fun! Being in the studio is such a creative thing, and we go up to the studio in Gloucestershire amongst the horses and cows, and it's really chilled out and you get the creative juices flowing. I really enjoy it.
We are just in the studio now writing the fourth album, how scary is that? Because we have got one coming out, a Gershwin project that I'm, doing, so we are writing the music for that so it's really nice to create something new.
I was just about to ask about the Gershwin record can you tell me a bit about that and why Gershwin?
I love him! My first jazz ballad that I ever learnt was Summertime I think when I was six I heard the person before me singing it and that is when I first started knowing that I loved that jazz old school music. There is a little story behind the Gershwin thing because I'm doing it with my string quartet, the Pavao String Quartet, but that's a secret so I'm not allowed to tell you about that. We are going out to New York next week to talk to some of the Gershwin family which is really cool. So it's all very exciting.
Apart from this new album what is next for you say for the next twelve months?
We are really busy with the music side of things, which I'm really happy about, because in the beginning after I got back from Cannes you would forget about the music because you were doing so many photo shoots. So we have the Mood Swings record coming out and the Gershwin record coming out so we are doing lots of cool gigs for that because it's just voice and strings, so it's really quirky, so hopefully we will get lots of posh place we will play for when the Queen has her tea.
I'm doing loads of festivals this year, mainly jazz festivals, they are my favourite gigs to do because it's people who really want to watch music and so hey listen to everything you say and do and you really pick up great fans at festivals. So I', excited for the summer.
How did you find playing at Glastonbury?
It was incredible, I was a bit nervous because I thought I'm not this type of music, but I had the best time ever and the best crowd, I even reply to people of MySpace still. It was so much. It was so muddy which was so funny there was like a metre of mud and I had these Marc Jacobs heels and this new dress all planned out and I got there and I went no way and stayed in my pyjamas and put a jumper over the top. No way am I getting my Marc Jacobs shoes muddy.
What have you found to be the benefits of MySpace?
I have made actual proper fans that I feel really connected too you look at other people's Myspace's, other bands, and it's just people saying 'I really love the music' and that's it. Where as I want to make a relationship with them, that is the way that you get a fan for life. Sometimes if you talk to them it does get a bit weird you get some people giving me their numbers and saying 'come out' and it's like no why would I do that?
