Singer-songwriter Tinashe is pleased to announce that her heavily anticipated debut studio album, Aquarius will be released on October 10th via Sony Music Australia.

The album, which Tinashe wrote and recorded between New York, London, and Los Angeles, finds the budding star at the forefront of modern R&B. Aquarius dynamic set of songs nod to her 90's upbringing with their DNA planted firmly in the future. Tinashe shaped the album over the course of 2013 and 2014 with the likes of DJ Mustard, Redwine & DJ Marley Waters (all three producing on the ubiquitous '2 On" featuring ScHoolboy Q), Boi-1da, Jasper, Future, Stargate and several other surprise guests.

'Aquarius is my official album introduction to the world and represents a new season of music and art," says Tinashe. 'I cannot wait to finally share with the world what I have been working so hard on for the past few years. This is just the beginning."

An official trailer for the album can be viewed here.
