BAT FOR LASHES create an intimate, cinematic world,
reminiscent of the nocturnal wanderings of Kate Bush and the heartfelt
prayers of Cat Power. Natasha composes songs that rise out of a dark,
heartbreak wilderness and take you on a journey in to the light. Taking
influence from 70’s film soundtracks, weather phenomena, childhood
Halloween parties and a David Lynchian vision of suburbia, they occupy
the tenebrous space between innocence and a loss of innocence and come
straight from the storyteller’s heart.
