LANEWAY FESTIVAL PRESENTS
BAT FOR LASHES SIDESHOWS

"This is porous, surrounding art-pop that stands tall in a year that’s yielded some fine competition, whether from David Byrne and St. Vincent or Fiona Apple. Khan is in no danger of losing her place at the top of her class, and yet The Haunted Man may surprise people who felt put off by her in the past. It demands to be fully embraced"
The Vine

"The Haunted Man finally matches Khan’s adolescent tenor musically, employing bigger, bolder, more dramatic sounds…In short, she’s never sounded more like a star."
The Age ****

"Spacious, boldly orchestrated, and emotionally rich, Khan's latest is another step forward for the multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter, and one of the year's mostbeguiling albums 8.4/10."
Pitchfork

"The Haunted Man provides proof, if it was even needed, that Bat For Lashes is a singular and amazing musical voice."
The Music Network

'The Haunted Man' is like being plunged into a fairytale soundtracked by skin-prickling electro. 8/10"
NME

The reception for Bat for Lashes' third album The Haunted Man has cemented Natasha Khan's place in the canon of exceptional female story-tellers, alongside PJ Harvey, Kate Bush, Cat Power et al. Armed with rave reviews from Pitchfork, The Guardian, The Age, The Vine and loads more locally and around the globe, Bat for Lashes is heading out to Australia for some of the most anticipated shows of the summer.

The Haunted Man has been worth the three-year wait. Plagued by writer’s block after the breakthrough success of Fur & Gold and acclaimed follow-up Two Suns (both nominated for the prestigious Mercury prize), Natasha Khan shed her feathers and Pearls to create a starkly ambitious and direct record, as sharp as her new bob. Evidence? First cut 'Laura', a perfectly executed overture that is guaranteed to surface on this year’s best-of lists.

Support comes in the form of the enigmatic Sydney artist KIRIN J. CALLINAN, who recently wowed audiences at CMJ. Check out an impressive New York Times interview here http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/10/17/cmj-kirin-j-callinan-at-glasslands-gallery/?smid=fb-share

Don't miss these very special theatre shows from one of the most beguiling artists of our time.
