Bat For Lashes

This talented half-Pakistanian half-English young singer preformes since the release of her Mercury prize winner debut album Fur And Gold (2006). She also released Two Suns (2009) and now you can hear her highly-acclaimed third album called The Haunted man (2012). That's a good reason to hear five tracks of Bat For Lashes, two of them from the new album which might easily get into my 2012 favourite lists.
