Sending a wave of excitement with her debut singles, ‘555’ and ‘the Line’, Annabel Asher showcases herself as a songwriter who can reflect deeply on feelings of passion. Annabel has now announced her new single ‘SHUT ME UP’, a teaser to forthcoming EP BESTSELLER, and a lustful, underground screamer.

Electrifying audiences with fuzzy bass lines and heavily processed vocal delays, Annabel crafts a sound that leaves plenty of sonic room for a pumping drum part. The overall sound is a hyperactive, volcanic set of overwhelming emotions, every inch of the mix screaming to be set free but contained in a vibrant cage.

Annabel explains the track, sharing, “I wrote this song about that moment right before you know you're about to kiss someone; when you're a bundle of nerves and just cannot stop talking. This song, while sonically brazen, is exposing and vulnerable. I wrote this song to take back power in a situation where I felt like I had none, zooming in on everything going through my head and body at the moment I lost control. It also speaks to the eroticism and frustration of being involved with someone who you know has a certain power over you. Produced by Finn Bennett, we brought the song to life through exhilarating synths, defiant drums and fierce vocals. We wanted to make something bold and provocative and coursing with electricity. I wanted to convey that blinding, masochistic desire that has made me feel/act insane.”

Annabel has made a name for herself in the underground scene of NYC, her sultry, soul-bearing sound and electric stage presence catching the ears of all who come across her. Born and raised in Los Angeles, Asher is a lifelong writer and performer, developing an otherwordly, tragically beautiful signature that bursts with animalistic obsession and profound romance.

Annabel has total command over the raw, glimmering range of emotions that come with embracing the ugly truths of coming-of-age. Grappling with masochistic tendencies and unusual relationships, she creates a robust sound by blending her powerhouse alto rasp, the tragic beauty of her lyrics, and a propulsive production.

‘SHUT ME UP’ is the first single from Annabel’s debut EP BESTSELLER, a project in which fans will see the artist’s revealing lyrics, dragging us deeper into the depths of our peculiar desires, unveiling the contours of wanting and being wanted.
