Whilst many of you may be scorching in un-airconditioned offices or stuffy motor vehicles today, turn your thoughts to Autumn. Specifically October.

As well as Pixies having decided to shuffle around (mostly Northern) Europe, the fairytale spinning Natasha Khan - aka Bat For Lashes - is going to traipse up and down this island playing the finest Bars and Music Halls.

Orrrr mid to large sized venues...

October 1: Opera House, Bournemouth
October 2: Dome, Brighton
October 4: Corn Exchange, Cambridge
October 5: Roundhouse, London
October 6: Roundhouse, London
October 9: Colston Hall, Bristol
October 10: O2 Academy, Liverpool
October 12: Rock City, Nottingham
October 13: O2 Academy, Leeds
October 14: Academy, Manchester
October 16: Great Hall, Cardiff University
October 17: Octagon, Sheffield
October 19: O2 Academy, Glasgow
October 20: HMV Picture House, Edinburgh

Catch her if you can!

On guitar: Charlotte Hatherley.

Tickets on sale from 9AM tomorrow.

Watch Bat For Lashes' network debut, on Letterman. Her version of 'Daniel' is not to be confused with the Elton John song of the same name, which is probably a little bit better.

Can someone confirm whether or not she's good live please?

I'm stuck between her and Pet Shop Boys for Latitude, quite like both of them. She looked pretty pants at Glasto, but I imagine Pettos will get an annoying crowd.

She's way better live than on record

Saw her with Joan as Policewoman around the time Fur and Gold came out and was pretty disappointed when i got round to buying the album. I think her old band of loads of girls on percussion was better than the current one, but then I liked the look of the Glasto footage... made me want to listen to the album after not being that fussed before.
