Kate Nash swapped her singing for teaching duties - she decided to start running a few UK after-school music clubs for children.

The Foundations hitmaker has travelled to six different schools over the last ten months to teach students how to play instruments and encourage them to work towards a career in the music industry.

Nash also revealed in a post written for CollapseBoard that she’s been giving them talks on how to work for a record label.

But the singer was left shocked when the female students didn’t believe they could forge a career in music and blamed celebrity culture for their concerns.
