Bat for Lashes has been announced as the fourth and final headliner for Dreamland's By the Sea Festival.

The announcement today comes as singer Natasha Khan's concept album The Bride is released, featuring the story of a bride who learns at the altar that the groom has died in a car crash on the way to his way to the wedding.

She joins Wolf Alice, Super Furry Animals and Wild Beasts as headliners at the festival from Friday, September 30 to Sunday, October 2.
