where the fuck have i been?



there is this band called Bat for Lashes. it is headed by a girl named Natasha Khan, who in my opinion is a complete and utter fashion icon. Natasha Khan was born to an English mother, and a Pakinstani father. Her early childhood was spent traveling the world following her father who trained the Pakistani squash team, summers in Pakistan, and the rest of the time in Hertfordshire. She received her degree in visual arts and went on to be a nursery school teacher. now, for me who's mama has been a nursery school teacher since i was 3, this is a wonderful thing. The debut of her first album, "The Wizard" came out last September and why i am just discovering it now is a major disconnect (it must be because i have had my head in the damn books for months now). that is going to change. Anyway, Bat For Lashes are working on their second album currently, which i am assuming will be a real good listen since Thom Yorke is supposedly a huge fan........you can also check em out on myspace at http://www.myspace.com/batforlashes
