Today, BANKS shares the lyric video for the haunting track “Contaminated.” View it HERE. The track is featured on BANKS’ third album, III, which debuted to widespread critical acclaim last month.
Zane Lowe first debuted the song as a World First on Apple Music’s Beats 1. BANKS recorded“Contaminated” in Los Angeles, collaborating with producer BJ Burton (Bon Iver, Francis and the Lights).
“‘Contaminated’ is about being addicted to a toxic relationship. The more you give, the less of yourself you become,” says BANKS.
She’ll support the album with an extensive headline tour, which kicks off on September 3 at REBEL in Toronto. The III Tour will include two sold-out shows at Brooklyn Steel (with a third night on sale now) and an October 1 concert at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles. Tickets and VIP packages are on sale now. BANKS will also perform at such festivals as Music Midtown in Atlanta, Life is Beautiful in Las Vegas and Austin City Limits.
