Naimee's song "Sugar Me" was played in the background of legendary British soaps Eastenders and Coronation Street. Her father had amnesia for 4 years, in which time Naimee had to reintroduce herself to him as his daughter. The vocal performance on "Ordinary World" was recorded in just one take. Her close friends include fellow Irish songstress Gemma Hayes and ex-RI:SE and Channel 5 presenter Liz Bonnin. Strange but true ... Naimee was once nominated for the Irish "Rear Of The Year" award! Naimee once auditioned to sing the Frank Sinatra classic "Summer Wind" for an Iarnrod Eireann (the Irish train company) advert. |
