Album post #29. Two Suns by Bat for Lashes. I grew up listening to a lot of the mainstream Celtic music that you would see on PBS (Three Irish Tenors, Riverdance, Celtic Women, etc.). Kind of dorky, but I bet everyone besides my buddy Fink wants to play a Bodhran.
Bat for Lashes isn’t quite Celtic, but between the minor melodies, hollow drums, and Natasha Khan’s towering voice it shares a lot in common with PBS-pop Celtic music. It is of course much cooler!
If Khan’s music isn’t attractive enough for you to fall in love with her, just take a look at the video of the album’s single Daniel below. She has a face to match her lovely voice. Full youtube playlist here.
