Anna Dasha Novotny, known professionally as Dasha, grew up in California before establishing herself as a Nashville-based singer and songwriter whose music blends pop with country traditions. Her breakthrough arrived in 2023 when the single “Austin” caught fire online, climbed to number three on the country charts, and later appeared on her first major-label album, What Happens Now?, issued the next year.

Drawing influence from Dolly Parton, Kacey Musgraves, and Avril Lavigne, she began posting original songs and videos on TikTok in 2020. A series of independent singles followed, among them the streaming favorites “Olivia” and “Love Me ’til August,” before she released her first full-length project, Dirty Blonde, in 2023. The same year, “Austin” and its line-dancing video exploded in popularity, accumulating three billion TikTok views and seventy-five million streams while reaching number three on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart. That track was subsequently featured on her 2024 sophomore album and major-label debut, What Happens Now?, which peaked at number twenty-seven on the country chart and also entered the Billboard 200. Later in the year she issued a deluxe edition that added new singles such as “Didn’t I” and “Bye Bye Bye.”
