Today, multi-platinum country star Dasha rolls out her hotly anticipated Anna EP via Warner Records. Listen HERE. The eclectic 8-song set, raw and introspective at times, rowdy and rollicking at others, includes the stripped-back ballad “Train” and the fiery new single “Work on Me,” which captures Dasha’s trademark confidence and sass, as well as her willingness to experiment with bold pop hooks.
Bar songs have a special place in country music, and Dasha leans into that legacy with “Work on Me.” After setting the scene over a punchy guitar and harmonica, she goes in for the kill at her local watering hole when a rugged stranger with a drawl captures her attention. “Workin’ with your hands ’til they’re covered in grease, fixin’ up your Bronco in the Tennessee heat,” she purrs over John Ryan’s breezy production. “I’m a little broken, baby, could you work on me?”
Dasha continues with the car imagery in the feel-good video, which finds her running an auto shop with a team of bad-ass women mechanics. When a customer gives the glamorous boss an attitude, she promptly dismantles his truck — that is, when she’s not indulging in a little workshop choreography with the girls. It’s irreverent, sexy, and quintessentially Dasha.
A nod to her birth name, the Anna EP is a deeply personal body of work that revisits formative memories while carving a bold path forward. On the wistful “Train,” Dasha ruminates on planting new roots: “You learn the turns and time the lights, the town you didn’t recognize / Becomes a little more like home.” The song, penned by songwriter Kyle Sturrock, resonated with Dasha as a reflection of her own journey, leaving home at 18 to find her footing in Nashville.
Other tracks include the fiery ear candy of “Like It Like That” — whose official video stars Love Island’s Rob Rausch and entrepreneur/influencer Briley King — not to mention the deeply vulnerable “Oh, Anna!” and Dasha’s inescapable smash “Not at This Party,” a relatable toe-tapper that has generated over 133 million streams to date and spawned a remix by GRAMMY® Award-winning superstar David Guetta — and which Dasha brought to NBC’s The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon for a boot-stomping performance.
Dasha recently spoke about the making of Anna and the challenges of instant viral fame on Rolling Stone’s Nashville Now podcast, reflecting on the online criticism and name-calling that followed her runaway hit “Austin (Boots Stop Workin’).” “It digs in on things I have said about myself in my moments of weakness, and I think that’s why it cuts so deep,” she says. “I know that’s not true, but everyone talks about themselves like that sometimes.”
Other 2025 milestones include: the MTV VMAs, where she was nominated for Push Performance of the Year; picking up a Best New Female Artist nod at the 2025 ACM Awards; and conquering the Mane Stage at Stagecoach Festival. In a review of the latter, GLAMOUR raved, “Her childlike excitement was contagious, the ecstasy of a performer finding her audience, and the crowd roared.” She brought that excitement to a headline run throughout Canada and is currently supporting Kane Brown on his UK arena tour. Tickets and info HERE.
Dasha broke out with the 2023 release of her global smash single “Austin (Boots Stop Workin’)” from her debut country album, What Happens Now. With the help of a self-choreographed line dance, the song became a worldwide sensation, taking over TikTok, honky tonks, and radio waves worldwide while amassing more than 1.5 billion streams, and is certified 8x Platinum in Canada.
And that was only the beginning. Dasha landed coveted spots at country music meccas across 2024, including Stagecoach, Austin City Limits, CMA Fest, and the CMT Awards. She then sold out her first headlining world tour, Dashville USA, and performed on two of TV’s biggest broadcasts: the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve. “Austin (Boots Stopped Workin’)” went on to become one of the most-streamed country songs of the year and won the Female Song of 2024 at the People’s Choice Country Awards.
From viral line dances to sold-out shows, Dasha has already made her mark on the country-pop landscape. With Anna and “Work on Me,” she begins the next chapter — one built on fearless honesty, unstoppable energy, and music that makes you want to scoot your boot.

Making a bold return today, RIAA Platinum certified pop-country sensation, Dasha, kickstarts her sophomore country project with a new single entitled “Not At This Party” out now via Warner Records. Listen to “Not At This Party” co-written by Ashley Gorley (Chris Stapleton, Kelsea Ballerini) and Ben Johnson (Charlie Puth, Dierks Bently) and watch the Aerin Moreno (Tate McRae, Tyla) directed music video now!
“‘Not At This Party’ was a title I’d been carrying around for a while,” Dasha shares. “It’s about that universal experience of being out with friends, but mentally checked out. When I wrote it with Ashley Gorley and Ben Johnson, I was going through something with a guy, and the song just flowed. We really tried to capture that mix of distraction and guilt in the song.”
Earlier today, the “Not At This Party” music video debuted on CMT, MTV and Paramount’s Times Square Billboard. It is now in rotation across CMT Channels, MTV Live, mtvU and MTV’s Biggest Pop.
In 2024, the singer landed coveted spots at country music meccas, Stagecoach, Austin City Limits, CMT Awards and CMA Fest. Her year didn’t stop there, though. She sold-out her first global headlining tour, Dashville USA, and performed on two of the biggest televised broadcasts of the year – Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and Dick Clark’s Rockin’ New Year’s Eve. The song went on to become one of the most-streamed country songs in 2024 and won the People’s Choice Country Awards for Female Song.
“This past year I was blown away by how many little girls were riding the rails at my shows,” Dasha says. “No one connects with perfection. For me, navigating the highs and lows of this industry means accepting that I’m going to make mistakes. This journey isn’t always going to be smooth, and the bumps along the way make for a far more interesting ride.”
Next up, she embarks on tour with Kane Brown, Thomas Rhett and Dylan Scott and is set to return to Stagecoach Music Festival in April. A full routing can be found below.

Responding to overwhelming fan demand for more music, one of the hottest breakout stars of 2024 and pop-country sensation Dasha (pronounced DASH-uh) delivers her irresistible new song “Didn’t I” out today via Warner Records.
“‘Didn’t I’ is so nostalgic, there’s something about my past that intrigues me, including the men. In the writer’s room, I was referring to a time months and months ago when I was backsliding into the guy that ‘Austin’ is about. It’s admitting like, ‘oops here I am again, my bad’ but I love how we made it lighthearted and fun,” says Dasha.
Today’s track places Dasha’s dynamic vocals, clever songwriting, and undeniable star power directly in the spotlight. Handclaps drive the momentum as fiddle accents the bright banjo riff. On the track, Dasha just can’t seem to let go of an old fling as she confesses on the chorus, “So why am I here with your lips on mine? I could’ve sworn I said, ‘This is over. Didn’t I?’” With its cheeky storytelling and infectious melody, “Didn’t I” has all the makings of another smash from the rapidly rising phenomenon.
Simultaneously, her hit single “Austin (Boots Stop Workin’)” peaked at 3 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs Chart and staked out a spot in the Top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100 peaking at 19. Meanwhile, Dasha scaled the Billboard Emerging Artists Chart to #2 with her album What Happens Now? peaking at 117 on the Billboard 200.
In other big news, her extensive global headline tour Dashville, U.S.A has sold out in a majority of markets with limited ticket availability remaining in Stockholm, Amsterdam and Salt Lake City. She will perform to capacity crowds everywhere from London and Los Angeles to New York and Toronto. Check out the full routing below.
This year, Dasha notably made her debut at the iconic Grand Ole Opry® in Nashville, TN. Of course, she highlighted the set with the smash single “Austin” as well as favorites from What Happens Now? The milestone performance marked a significant moment in Dasha’s burgeoning career as she joins the ranks of artists like Kelsea Ballerini, Luke Combs, Lady A, Blake Shelton, and many more who have graced the stage of Grand Ole Opry®.
Stay tuned for a whole lot more from Dasha.
