Bat For Lashes is Natasha Khan. Her father is a Pakistani who moved to London and married an Englishwoman.
Natasha Khan comes from a squash-playing family. She has attributed some of her early creative spark to hearing the crowd's applause at professional squash matches featuring her former-professional-squash-playing father, Rehmat Khan. He went on to coach her mother's cousin, Jahangir Khan, who is considered one of the greatest squash players in the history of the game.
According to an interview with Q magazine, Khan says she has "no latent talent" for squash.
