10.07.2019 BANKS veröffentlicht ihr neues Album "III"!
Zuvor hatte die Sängerin und Songwriterin bereits die Singles "Gimme" und "Look What You're Doing To Me" als erste Vorboten präsentiert und dabei die vielen Facetten des neuen Werks angeteast.
Über 1,2 Milliarden Streams gehen bereits auf ihr Konto, allein über 500 Millionen Streams in den USA. Die Fangemeinde feiert die poetisch-dunklen Song-Themen ebenso wie BANKS' außergewöhnlichen Style. Die Musik von BANKS war schon immer mutig, düster und selbstbewusst (einer der herausragenden Titel von The Altar hieß "Fuck with Myself"), jetzt setzt sie ihren Weg mit einem packenden neuen Album weiter fort.
Die deutschen Fans dürfen sich drei Shows der Sängerin und Songwriterin im Herbst freuen.
About - BANKS
Some things don’t need to be defined. Some aren’t meant to be in a box, held in proverbial captivity. They inherently defy a need for classification.
BANKS makes music. Great music. Why not just stop there? Allow her to be a siren for a generation, beckoning for self discovery. She begs for it.
Conveying her sound seems almost unfair. It’s built on a simple notion of emotion. Perhaps that explains the near explosion of eager fans frantic to share their own discovery, ultimately propelling this songstress’ art to the top of Hypem charts.
A toy keyboard is all it took to awaken the inevitable. That evolved into a piano. The notes articulated feelings. Then chords turned to melodies. Heart-piercing lyrics cloaked in lush orchestration.
Now BANKS’ EP London applauds her arrival. The four songs introduce this budding self-taught songstress, one whose voice echoes a generation. She writes with a restless urgency, lyrically candid yet relatable, weaving vivid imagery into pop-skewed lullabies as she lures with every note, every chord, every breath.
A hypnotic blend of beats, pianos, echoes and an addictive vocal presence, BANKS slips in and out of genres with an ease so effortless, it once again serves as a reminder to leave your tags behind. Hip-hop, Pop, R&B, Alternative, Electronic… they all live in this very place. And she can be any or all. Or none. A singer. A poet. A pianist. A narrator. An artist.
