Last Thursday, I went and saw Bat for Lashes in Portland, Oregon at the Doug Fir Lounge.  Popbytes introduced BFL to me about 6 months ago, and I’ve been totally hooked, ever since!

The show was awesome! Lead singer Natasha Khan sounds even more amazing live. I’ve become obsessed with her last album, Two Suns.  Her voice is beautiful, and she puts on a great show. If she’s coming to a city near you – go see her! Tickets in Portland were only $10 – but I would have paid much more! She’s great!!

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.

A new Bat For Lashes album Two Suns was released on the 6th of April 2009.

‘Two Suns’ was written and recorded around the world, from Big Sur and the Joshua Tree desert in California to the rolling Welsh countryside and the city sprawls of New York and London.

It includes appearances by Brooklyn’s finest psychedelic experimentalists Yeasayer, who provide bass and beat programming. The legendary Scott Walker also performs a duet with Natasha for the album closer ‘The Big Sleep’.
As with Fur And Gold, Natasha chose to co-produce Two Suns with David Kosten (AKA Faultline).

Having spent parts of her childhood in Pakistan, Natasha Khan now lives by the sea in England.
