AUSTIN
by DASHA
Austin is a song by Californian singer-songwriter Dasha (real name Anna Dasha Novotny), lifted from her 2024 EP What Happens Now?
Co-written by Dasha alongside Adam Wendler, Cheyenne Rose Arnspiger and Kenneth Travis Heidelman, and produced by Heidelman, the track gained popularity on social media, with users posting their trending choreographed routines to the song.
Speaking to CountrySwag.com about the making of the track, Dasha said: "Austin is one of my favorite songs that I’ve ever written. The story behind writing the song is really cool.
"We were all writing this song called Play Dumb. It was like this cheating song about knowing someone’s cheating on you, but playing dumb, so you can hold on a little bit longer, and I didn’t relate to the song, so I was having trouble writing it.
"I started freestyling over it, and I started the chorus for Austin, exactly how you hear it."
Austin made its first Official Singles Chart appearance in March 2024, when it debuted at Number 81.
