Gordon Lightfoot Book, Music and More!

Bat for Lashes, aka England’s Natasha Khan, counts Radiohead and M.I.A. among her fans. A former nursery school teacher, Natasha won acclaim with her first Bat for Lashes album, Fur and Gold, which earned Mercury Prize and Brit Award nominations. Her second album should attract a wider audience with bold tracks like the Kate Bush-style opener “Glass,” the Fleetwood Mac-like “Daniel” and the ethereal closer “The Big Sleep.” Wildly exotic, Bat for Lashes’ Natasha is a refreshingly brave new pop princess.

Before Björk, there was no female pop star as mystifying and yet mesmerizing as this singular British artist. This 90-minute documentary features rare interviews with Bush, stellar videos, from “Wuthering Heights” and the superb “Cloudbusting” to the recent “King of the Mountain,” commentary from critics and a skill-testing interactive quiz. Those seeking deeper insights into this enigmatic artist may be disappointed, but love hounds seeking an audio-visual fix of all things Kate should prepare to be Bushwhacked. June 6
