Reviews

The folk-tinged Bridge is compelling through its short running time, while the more extravagant Love Is All is perhaps the pinnacle of the album.

At the end of the day the trilogy feels more like an attempt to mask a dearth of social currency with volume not quality. And just because you can do that it doesn’t mean that you should.

He’s nothing if not solid, but don’t think you’re dropping the needle on a classic.

Bat For Lashes can only ever be crazy good with a stunning performance to round off the night at the Park Stage.

Their second encore of Fisherman’s Blues and A Man Is In Love sees everyone standing, aisles full of dancers and a broadly grinning band.

There’s no question that they’ll leave the night on such a relaxed note, though – after all, this is Hermitude.

Each song felt like a gift; this was music held together with a delicate touch for open ears. And all those that heard it were thankful and moved.

A great performance and something new with every track, even for the most die-hard fans.

This multitalented cast do offer, as the cliché goes, something for everybody.
