Following on from the pair’s sets at this year’s Field Day festival, Bat For Lashes’ Natasha Khan has recorded a track with London psych outfit TOY.

The song in question is a cover of ‘Aroos Khanom’ by Iranian musician Amir Rassaei, or its English name of ‘The Bride’. It originally featured on Zendooni: Funk, Psychedelia and Pop from the Iranian Pre-Revolution Generation, a compilation celebrating ‘Persian Pop’ from the pre-Revolution Iran.

The cover is out on 1 July as a 7″ via Speedy Wunderground. Listen to it below, via Pitchfork:
