She also released new song from the album called “Look What You’re Doing To Me” featuring Francis and The Lights, who has worked with Chance the Rapper and Kanye West.

Fans who do pre-order the album will instantly receive a digital download of the new single as well as the previously released “Gimme.”

In a press release, she talked about the new album, stating “This album is an ode to my journey. It documents a major growth spurt. Of self-acceptance, letting go, forgiveness, and deep love. It has been painful to realize that life is not black and white.”See the full tracklist and album art below.

BANKS will then head out on the road in support of the new record, playing intimate venues and festival sets across North America and Europe.
