US singer and record producer Finneas has announced the creation of a new band called The Favors with music artist Ashe.
The 27-year-old, full name Finneas O’Connell, is best known for his collaborative efforts with sister Billie Eilish.
On Monday, Finneas and US singer Ashe, whose full name is Ashlyn Rae Willson, revealed they have already recorded an album as a band and said it will be released in September.
A shared social media post from an Instagram account called wearethefavors, said: “We made a band. It’s called The Favors. Announcing our new album, The Dream, out September 19.
“Debut single, The Little Mess You Made, Friday, June 6.
“We deeply loved making this music together in secret and can’t wait for it to finally make its way to you.”
In a post to his Instagram story, Finneas wrote: “Over the past 18 months, Ashe and I have been toiling away on this album and I really mean it when I say I could not be more proud of it – David Marinelli on drums, Ricky Gourmet on guitar – I love being in a band.”
Finneas has won 10 Grammys including producer of the year, non-classical, for Eilish’s number one album, When We Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?.
In 2024, he and Eilish won their second Oscar in the best original song category for their track What Was I Made For?, which featured in Greta Gerwig’s Barbie movie.
Their first Oscar was for the song No Time To Die, which was featured in the James Bond film of the same name.
Ashe is known for songs including Me Without You and Moral Of The Story, the latter of which was co-produced by Finneas.
