Editor's review

Surreal and spiritual, mystical and mythical, Bat For Lashes create eerie nursery rhymes driven by trip-hop, indie rock, and a confusingly beautiful host of influences both visual and musical. Cultural wayfarer Natasha Khan and her conspirators draft a dreamy and poetic climate of minimalist marches, scribbling pensive lyrics in a moonlit sky with ineffable penmanship.

Biography

Bat For Lashes is the work of British singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and visual artist Natasha Khan. Born in 1979, yet combining influences that span decades, Natasha's work dwells in the elemental, emerging in timeless forms.

Bat For Lashes' music is bold and vivid. Her live shows, with accomplices Ginger Lee, Abi Fry and Lizzy Carey, are made up of thunderous marching band drums, desert guitar, ballet school piano, harpsichord, sub-bass snarls, hand-claps and naive beats, with the women fluidly switching and swapping their instruments between songs. There are also interludes of exquisite heartbreak; the piano ballad ?Sad Eyes? has on more than one occasion left audience members in tears. Her debut album Fur and Gold is a very special record, a cohesive collection of songs so haunting and mesmerizing it makes a striking impression on all who hear it.
