Multi-platinum selling artist Ashnikko makes their hotly anticipated return with ‘Smoochies’, set for release on 17th October.

Equal parts sexy, playful, and feminine, ‘Smoochies’ toes the line between the grotesque and the absurd. Moving past the pressures of viral fame, Ashnikko fully embraces their maximalist pop persona, blending club, country and hip-hop influences. The album stands as the “older sister” to DEMIDEVIL and a liberated evolution from WEEDKILLER. It’s their most personal and collaborative work, trading fantasy worlds for autobiographical themes through the lens of the “Smoochie Girl”: a messy, chaotic and authentic figure who rejects beauty standards and the male gaze in favour of personal autonomy and joyful whimsy.

With hits like ‘Daisy’, ‘Stupid’ and ‘Slumber Party’ and a global fanbase built through worldwide sold-out tours, ‘Smoochies’ marks the start of a bold new era.
