BANKS returns with the highly-anticipated release of her fourth studio album, SERPENTINA, out now on AWAL. The 13-track LP features previously released singles, ‘The Devil,’ ‘Skinnydipped,’ ‘Holding Back,’ ‘I Still Love You’ as well as the album’s current focus track, ‘Fuck Love’.
Also announced, BANKS will embark on her headlining SERPENTINA TOUR with special guest Lauren Jauregui and Cautious Clay confirmed to join in New York and Philadelphia. The 25-date North America run will be making stops across all major cities including one night at New York City’s iconic Radio City Music Hall. The 10 date September UK and European run will commence in Belgium, stop in Germany, Netherlands and France before 4 UK shows including The Roundhouse in London show.

SERPENTINA sees BANKS enter previously uncharted territory in every sense—from sound to lyrics to visuals, and everything in-between. “In the past I’ve been really tight and controlled, and I don’t feel like that right now,” says BANKS. “I just feel more wild and free.” Following a year of intense isolation during lock-down, a traumatic break-up and some serious mind-and-body wake-up calls, SERPENTINA marks an exciting new chapter in an already illustrious career. BANKS is releasing music independently for the first time (via AWAL), as well as co-producing every track. Since her spellbinding debut in 2014, BANKS has garnered more than 1.4 billion combined streams and headlined sold out shows and festivals all over the world.
Now, with a dedicated global army of fans, and a powerful body of work under her belt, the California-born artist, producer, songwriter and poet is declaring her independence once and for all, as she embarks on this new and empowering era of her musical career and personal life. This is the SERPENTINA era.
