Biography

Made up of musicians Paul Banks, singer and rhythm guitarist with rock band Interpol, and Wu-Tang Clan rapper RZA, the duo Banks & Steelz was formed in 2011. The two men, convinced that they could combine their talents despite their different musical backgrounds, soon began recording demos with a view to releasing an album in 2013. But Paul Banks' busy schedule with his band, which was due to release an album the following year, initially put the brakes on their ambitions. By mutual agreement, Banks & Steelz set their sights on a joint release in 2015, but were unable to keep to this schedule. We had to wait until 2016 for the official release of the duo's first single, "Love and War", which preceded the long-awaited debut album by a few weeks. The album, entitled Anything But Words, features a host of guest stars, including Florence Welch (Florence + the Machines) and Ghostface Killah.
