Bat For Lashes
Bat For Lashes is set to deliver the kind of magical performance to match the kaleidoscopic sails of the illuminated Opera House.
Overview
Natasha Khan, aka Bat For Lashes, is a willowy enigma wrapped in feathers and furs. The musical world of the Brighton-based singer-songwriter is one of full moon's, fairytales and sparkling things, all composed with the kind of delicate intensity that inspires obsessive devotion from people sitting in their bedrooms wearing headphones around the world.
Nominated for a collection of Brit Awards and Mercury Prizes, Bat For Lashes' reputation rests on two albums — Fur And Gold and Two Suns — a handful of cover-versions, including The Cure's 'A Forest' and Depeche Mode's 'Strangelove,' and 'Let's Get Lost', a collaboration with Beck, which is the one solitary thing that convinces me the Twilight franchise can't be as bad as all that. Although frequently likened to Kate Bush, Bjork and PJ Harvey, the similarities are drawn mostly because her powerful voice and echoing melodies mark her out as completely unique amongst other contemporary female artists.
Which is why Bat For Lashes is one of the most highly anticipated acts set to perform during this year's Vivid Live Festival. Bringing with her a modest orchestral contingent to accompany her, and a whole lot of creative energy from the new album she's currently working on, you can count on Bat For Lashes to deliver the sort of magical performance to match the kaleidoscopic sails of the illuminated Opera House.
