Atomic Kitten cross Atlantic hoping for hit

The British pop trio Atomic Kitten have crossed the Atlantic week with a self-titled album, hoping to do what few British acts have done since the early 1990s – conquer America.

The three – Jenny Frost, Natasha Hamilton and Liz McClarnon are helped by the single The Tide Is High, which is on the soundtrack of the soon-to-be-released Walt Disney Co film The Lizzie McGuire Movie.
