I Eat Music

This is officially the most exciting thing that has happened all year, so keep reading. CMU favourite Bat For Lashes has announced that she is touring the UK in October, including two nights at London’s Roundhouse, and she has personally asked fellow CMU favourites Yeasayer to join her.

Bat For Lashes, or course, released one of the year’s best albums ‘Two Suns’, back in April, which featured contributions from members of Yeasayer on a number of tracks. All four members of Yeasayer, meanwhile, are currently working on their second album, the follow-up to 2007’s ‘All Hour Cymbals’, which is set for release in 2010.
