If there is one person whose closet (let's be honest, whose whole life) I'd like to raid, it would be Natasha Khan. Singer, songwriter, multi- instrumentalist, visual artist, and now my personal fashion muse, is there anything this British beauty can't do? Combining unusual instruments (like the harpsichord), a militaristic sound, a vintage vibe, and mystical indie rock, her songs are hauntingly beautiful. She is a master storyteller, taking us on trips through animal kingdoms and magical dream sequences.
Though Natasha went to school to be a multi-media artist, she was working as a nursery school teacher to pay the bills when she had a dream about Joan of Arc and the black horse that sent her on her fateful quest, inspiring the song "Horse and I", and eventually the entire album "Fur and Gold", which was up for a Mercury award. Natasha's music is an extension of her visual art, "Whenever I'm writing music it's a very visual place in my mind. It has a location full of characters and colors and landscapes, so those two things really compliment each other, and they help the other one to blossom and support the other. They are like brother and sister," she says.Natasha was nominated for Best British Breakthrough Act and Best British Female at the Brit Awards 2008, but narrowly lost to Mika and Kate Nash. Her covetable style incorporates the whimsy of her music with a 70s flair, lots of layering, and is always topped off with a retro style headband. Check out my slideshow of some of Natasha's favorite designers mixed in with my faves she'd look great in, then watch her amazing video.Sounds like: Joanna Newsom, Tori Amos, Kate Bush, BjorkTop Songs to Download: "Priscilla", "What's a Girl To Do", and "Horse and I"
