British singer-songwriter Natasha Khan, aka Bat For Lashes has announced her sixth studio album “The Dream of Delphi” will be released on May 31, 2024.
The album is her first LP in five years since the 2019 album “Lost Girls”.
She made the album after she gave birth to her daughter Delphi during the COVID lockdown in the summer of 2020.
The album comprises a 11-track, all songs were written and produced by Natasha Khan.
From the album, she released the title track alongside the Freddie Leyden-directed music video on February 22, 2024.
The track was written by Ben Christophers, Jake Falby, Mary Lattimore, and Natasha Khan. Produced by Natasha Khan, Jake Falby, and Tyler Karmen.
Natasha Khan said of the song, “This is the manifesto of the album. It's like a spell being cast. It's the conjuring, the manifestation, the drawing-down of Delphi from the ether.”- She continued, “This is me calling on her soul. It's about going up into the stars and down into the underworld simultaneously, how celestials and deep guttural sounds can come together, how that reflects the journey I went on. It's about what happens when you're stretched physically, mentally, even vaginally! I think it's just humbled me, too, becoming a mother. It's made me feel more vulnerable than I've ever felt before. But I feel more human, more embodied. I can't escape life by making beautiful things as much as I did. But there's sort of a beauty to my mortality now.”
