Bat for Lashes released her new album Two Suns to near universal acclaim last month, reaching a staggering Number 5 in the charts.
With the single ‘Daniel’ playlisted at Radio 1 and 2 and sessions for Jo Whiley, Zane Lowe and Jonathan Ross, as well as an appearance on Jools Holland and an incredible performance on The Late Show with David Letterman last weekend
Overflowing with sumptuous and catchy melodies, live favourite ‘Pearl’s Dream’ and second single to be taken from Two Suns, is a hypnotic, brooding electro number, providing the album’s purest pop moment. Synth and percussion heavy, cushioned by Khan’s mesmerising vocals, she sings of yearning and escape;
“There’s a place I must go, For my heart is a child, That stumbles lonely for the arms of the wild” among a concoction of hand claps and strings. ‘Pearls Dream’; “bears testament to the pop heart that beats at the centre of even Bat for Lashes most esoteric moments” (The Times).
After a sell out UK tour culminating in two astounding shows at Shepherds Bush Empire, Bat for Lashes will spend the summer appearing at festivals including Glastonbury, headlining stages at Latitude and Bestival as well as headlining Somerset House on 16 July.
