Bat For Lashes

The marvelous singer Bat For Lashes has completed her concept album The Bride, due July 1st.

The album “tells the story of a would-be bride whose fiancée is killed in a car crash on the way to their wedding, after which she embarks on what would have been her honeymoon alone and reflects upon the swirling emotions she’s feeling.”

She plans to perform The Bride in churches and the audience is invited to wear wedding attire.

“I Do” and the chilling “In God’s House” set up the album.

“I Do”

“In God’s House”
