Two Suns
With her dazzling 2009 sophomore album, Bat For Lashes is set to assume the mantle of the most dynamic and intriguing Pop performer in the UK. Natasha Khan's debut, Fur And Gold, was nominated for the 2007 Mercury Music Prize, and earned two Brit Award nominations for Best Breakthrough and Best Female in 2008. The album's blend of spooky childhood reveries and magical piano balladry caught the imagination of everyone and not just in the music world. Bat for Lashes was asked to support Radiohead on their European tour last summer at the band's personal request, where she assembled a new live band to explore fresh musical forms, before heading out to New York and the Californian desert to write what has now become Two Suns. 11 tracks including the single 'Daniel'.
