Bat For Lashes is the creation of Natasha Khan (born 25th October 1979), a Pakistan-born, Brighton based songwriter. In her formative years Natasha studied film and music at art school, where her experimental work, influenced by artists including Steve Reich and Susan Hiller, led her to produce multi-media work centred on sound installations, animations and performance.

Her debut single, ‘The Wizard’ was released digitally through DiS records and on seven inch through Khan’s own imprint, She Bear Records. Bat For Lashes then signed to the record label Echo, alongside Feeder and Róisín Murphy and she released her debut album, Fur and Gold, on 11th September, 2006.

Her music has been likened to the work of Björk, Cat Power, Tori Amos and Kate Bush.
