back in August.

Hi,
I've just got back from the last UK tour with Bat For Lashes and in a few days we go back out to
Europe

We also have a few weeks touring with Coldplay early next year through South America,

11th March 2010 - Estadio Universitario, Monterrey


it has been pretty amazing, a far cry from the humble days of when I first starting messing around with Natasha where there was no real budget and the Mercury Music prize was a distant thought.. Now look !! (though we didn't win we still get a sticker and I like stickers)

I'm glad to be be stopping for a few months, I haven't been home much of this year and had to put alot of other stuff on the back burner as things took off.
Today I'm in the Studio recording some ideas for my album, I have been through a million phases and I think it's been good for me as I have taken something from every corner.
The Piano is featuring alot more than previous albums, it was my original vision to make it sparser and piano led, and the lyrics to be very clear and honest, I have been really focused on making this sound and feel a certain way and dare I say it is rising up, it'll be ready for release next year.
