Today, buzzing British singer, songwriter, and actress Asha Banks unveils her highly anticipated new EP, Bottled Up, out now via Polydor Label Group —listen HERE.

Speaking on the EP, Asha shares, “My third EP Bottled Up is out now! I’m very proud of this project and can’t wait for everyone to hear it. Bottled Up is about closure, or the lack there of, to be honest. I tend to bottle up emotions rather than confront them, and this EP is my way of letting it all out.”

True to its title, Bottled Up finds Banks giving voice to the thoughts and feelings she might otherwise keep to herself, saying out loud what would usually go unsaid. Described by Asha as “my favourite music I’ve ever made and especially to play live,” the five-track project features recent fan-favorite singles ‘Anything But’ and ‘Biggest Fan,’ alongside three brand new tracks—’Edgeways,’ ‘Don’t Take It Out On Me,’ and ‘Who You Are To Me Now.’

Recently, Banks delivered a stunning, stripped-back performance for Coal Drops Sessions, performing several new songs live on the Regent’s Canal in London, including ‘Anything But’, ‘Too Busy Missing You’, and ‘Come Down’—watch HERE.

Bottled Up arrives amid a breakout year for Asha, following a string of acclaimed singles, including ‘Too Busy Missing You,’ featured on the soundtrack for Prime Video’s critically acclaimed series Off Campus, and ‘Come Down,’ which plays over the end credits of Prime Video’s Your Fault: London, in which she also stars. She also surprised fans with her collaborative EPEverything Is About You with Novo Amor and Lowswimmer. Across 2026 alone, her catalogue has amassed more than 7 million streams, 43 million TikTok views, and 17,000 social media creates.

Earlier this week, Banks kicked off her biggest headline tour to date, the “something inbetween tour,” marking her first-ever nationwide North American headline run, with Alfie Jukes joining as support. Overwhelming fan demand following the initial on-sale led to additional shows and venue upgrades, with dates in Philadelphia, New York, Washington, D.C., Montreal, Toronto, West Hollywood, and Toronto already sold out. See the full list of upcoming tour dates below—remaining tickets are available HERE.

In addition to her headline shows, Asha has brought fans directly into the world of Bottled Up through intimate, in-person activations, from fan meet-ups and listening events in London, New York, and Chicago to sending fans exclusive postcards with artwork reveals, handwritten lyrics, and personalized gifts. She’s even invited fans to design clothes for her to wear on the “something inbetween tour.”

Last year, Asha dropped her sophomore EP How Real Was It?, earning praise from the likes of NOTION, HUNGER, DORK, and Variety, who named her among its 2026 “Power Of Young Hollywood” list. How Real Was It? was followed by her first-ever headline shows across North America, the UK – including a London date at The Roundhouse – and Europe, with dates selling out within hours of on-sale. Along the way, she opened for Noah Kahan at BST Hyde Park festival and collaborated with BRIT Award-winning artist Holly Humberstone on fan-favorite track ‘Dive’.

Banks has continued to captivate audiences not only on-stage, but also on-screen. Beyond starring in Prime Video’s My Fault: London and its sequel Your Fault: London, as well as Netflix’s A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder among numerous other film and television credits, she has cultivated a devoted fanbase through deeply personal songwriting and mesmerizing live performances. At barely six years old, she penned her very first song and forever harbored a dream of becoming an artist. Growing up inspired by everyone from Joni Mitchell and Norah Jones to Jack Johnson, Johnny Cash, and AC/DC, Asha has carved out a sound that feels both timeless and unmistakably her own.

ABOUT ASHA BANKS:

Asha Banks shines as a consummate creative with an uncanny ability to tell stories across artistic mediums. She has captivated audiences on-stage and on-screen as an actress, but she has truly pulled fans into her embrace as a singer and songwriter. She wrote her first tune as a child and never stopped obsessing over music. A quiet grind saw her achieve global renown thanks to starring roles in #1 Prime Video hits My Fault: London and its newly released sequel Your Fault: London, as well as Netflix’s A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder (Season 2 streaming now). Simultaneously, Asha generated millions of streams with her original singles, such as “So Green” and “Feel The Rush,” paving the way for the fan-favorite 2025 Untie My Tongue and How Real Was It? EPs. Along the way, her journey would also be enthusiastically chronicled by everyone from NOTION to The Hollywood Reporter. Not to mention, she has ignited stages at BST Hyde Park and All Points East. Signing to Polydor in 2025, her light glows even brighter on a series of new singles out now and sold-out North American headline tour slated for this fall.
