News: Charlotte Hatherley joins Bat For Lashes + releasing new solo album

Hatherley (above, left), formerly of alternative fuzz-guitar pop band Ash has been playing in the back-up band for Natasha Khan's vehicle Bat For Lashes (whose Two Suns may very well get the hat tip for album of the year), creating what may be the hottest two females in a band conglomerate since, well, you choose.  According to the chanteuse, "I will be touring with Bat For Lashes until September, starting in the UK April…gig of note, April 17 and 19 at the O2 Shepherds Bush Empire…spreading like a happy disease through Europe and USA and hitting the festivals in the summer."  Also, her new solo effort, entitled Cinnabar City, will be out sometime this September.
