Banks

There has been an influx of up and coming female indie vocalists ever since Lana Del Rey's meteoric rise to stardom. Lorde was the first to make a big name for herself, and rightly so.. because she is amazing! However, Lorde aside, there has been one new voice that has really caught my eye as unique. Her name is Banks.

Banks is a singer/songwriter from the city of angels who has been creating quite a buzz around her music as of late. So much so that The Weeknd deemed her worthy to open up for him on his latest nationwide Kiss Land tour earlier this year. Like The Weeknd, her music is dark and melodic but she talks about real emotions/experiences that I am sure many women can relate too. For example, in her song Bedroom Wall she sings about being with a man that is distant as she tries to pull him closer, both physically and emotionally.

Another favorite track of mine is called Warm Water. I love the vibe, the hook and the sound of her voice over the incredibly minimal beat. Check out the official music video below.

If you dig her music you have to check out Before I Ever Met You, Change or This Is What It Feels Like on her Spotify or her SoundCloud. Make sure to follow her on Facebook to stay up to date on everything she does!

Enjoy! <3
