Page "Fiona Apple" Paragraph 6

Apple was introduced to the music industry in 1994, when she gave a demo tape containing the songs " Never Is a Promise ", " Not One of Those Times ", and " He Takes a Taxi " to her friend who was the babysitter of music publicist Kathryn Schenker.

Schenker then passed the tape along to Sony Music executive Andy Slater.

Apple's contralto voice, piano skills and lyrics captured his attention, and Slater signed her to a record deal.
