Bat For Lashes’ music is bold, vivid and wild. Her live shows, with fellow girls 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. Bat For Lashes headlined a sold out Scala, where the likes of Bjork, Nellee Hooper and Brett Anderson were to be seen in the sold out crowd. Other fans include Devendra Banhart, Jarvis Cocker and Thom Yorke, who described her voice as “ghostly and fairytale like, she made me feel like a wolf “. Having spent parts of her childhood in Pakistan, Natasha Khan now lives by the sea in England which is exactly where you picture yourself when you listen to this. A friend of mine lent me the album yesterday and I cannot stop playing it! Heres a sample of my favourite track for you to download, Prescilla. Enjoy.
