Yesterday Was Forever is the fourth studio album by English singer-songwriter Kate Nash. Her first album in five years, the record notably sees Nash return to her indie pop roots. It was released independently and funded by fans via Kickstarter. To promote the album, Nash embarked on the Yesterday Was Forever Tour in the United States and Canada, and has performed at several festivals, including Reading and Leeds Festival.[1]
