Banks is back with "Underdog", a new single born from "a beast inside" full of snarls and synthy R&B glamour.
The track follows Jack Antonoff collab "Crowded Places" and her second LP The Altar.
Banks spoke to Zane Lowe about the track as it debuted as his World Record on Beats 1, and also revealed a bit more about her upcoming 6LACK collaboration(s...?). Check out the interview below.
Banks plays a string of UK and European shows in the coming months, including a date at London's Eventim Apollo. Find out full details.
"Underdog" is out now via Harvest.
