ANN KING crafts alt-pop rooted in poetic storytelling and cinematic arrangements. Based in the Netherlands, the singer-songwriter and producer blends intimate vulnerability with expansive, filmic soundscapes, creating music that feels both deeply personal and quietly powerful. Her work centers on growth, autonomy, and the courage to outgrow what once felt safe.
Following two critically received EPs and her breakthrough single “Merry-go-round,” which has surpassed 600,000 streams, King has steadily built a loyal international audience. Her singles “Why Can’t I Fall in Love” and “Cherry Tree Lane” further strengthened her momentum, earning her nominations at the Hollywood Independent Music Awards in Los Angeles for Best Female Vocalist and Best Singer/Songwriter.
King’s debut album, At This Moment In Time, will be released on November 11th, 2026. The project began four years ago with “It Comes and Goes,” whose lyrics inspired the album’s title. Initially conceived as an EP, it grew into a full-length record as King realised she had more to tell. Unfolding like a book, each song forms a chapter in a larger story, inviting listeners into a world shaped by nostalgia, reflection and quiet rebellion.
Layered vocals, intricate harmonies, orchestral textures and swelling strings give the album its cinematic sweep. Intimate, fragile moments open into bold, immersive arrangements, with each track revealing another part of its sonic and emotional landscape. King produced most of the album in her bedroom studio, experimenting with orchestral soundbanks and recording techniques, and building her own reamping rig to bring her ideas to life.
Beyond the studio, King has toured extensively with her band across the Netherlands, England and Austria. She has received support from major Dutch radio stations, including 3FM and Radio 2, secured placements on Spotify editorial playlists such as ’t Koffiehuis and Stay Tuned!, and performed at festivals including Live I Life Festival, Bevrijdingsfestival and Fringe Festival.
With her debut album, Ann King brings her cinematic storytelling, independent spirit and unmistakable artistic voice into their fullest expression yet. Turning personal reflection into a world listeners can step inside, At This Moment In Time establishes King as one of pop’s most compelling emerging storytellers.
