BANKS had previously announced a North American tour for this summer.

During her previous London show at KOKO last October, the singer gave her Doechii collaboration ‘I Hate Your Ex-Girlfriend’ its live debut. Speaking to NME earlier this year, BANKS said the gig “felt truly like a celebration”, having played at the same venue on the original ‘Goddess’ tour in 2014.

The 2024 concert in question marked the 10th anniversary of BANKS’ debut studio album.

“I remember being on that stage for my first [London headline] show: the nerves, anxiety and the different struggles I was having in my head,” BANKS told NME. “I’m in such a different place now. Everybody was screaming every lyric, and it just felt like joy was everywhere.”

She added: “Everybody knew every [‘…Ex-Girlfriend’] lyric already – it was such a vibe. I could put the mic down and just dance around with the audience during Doechii’s part.”

As for her connection to the UK capital, BANKS explained: “London is a huge part of my career – my first EP was called ‘London’. This was the first place I ever travelled to, to write.

“I ended up meeting my creative soul mates on that trip – Lil Silva, Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs. I really discovered my sound, which had been building for over 10 years of writing on my own.”

She went on: “Beyond that, the UK was one of the first territories that really accepted me and embraced me, and I will always feel a closeness for that.”

BANKS also spoke to NME about how the team-up with Doechii came about, discussed the “brightness” of her “brave” and “joyous” fifth album, her memories of touring with The Weeknd, and more.
