Multi-BRIT Award and Mercury Prize nominee OLIVIA DEAN will play a run of intimate acoustic shows this September in partnership with independent record stores.

The dates are in support of the release of her highly-anticipated second album, The Art of Loving, arriving on 26th September.

The Art of Loving follows the critical success of Olivia’s 2023 debut, Messy, which saw her cement her status as one of the most compelling voices in neo-soul and pop.

Last Friday, Sam Fender shared a new recording of Rein Me In, which originally featured on Sam’s number 1 selling third album, People Watching, featuring a new verse and vocals written and sung by Olivia.

Sam and Olivia performed the track at the London Stadium earlier this month in front of 80,000 fans to a huge reaction with snippets of the performance flooding social media soon after. The pair subsequently performed the track twice more at Newcastle’s St. James’ Park. Olivia DeanListen Here.

The Art of Loving is a tender, intentional deep dive into the many dimensions of love – romantic, platonic, self, and everything in between. The album will feature Olivia’s recently released single, ‘Nice To Each Other’, which is accompanied by a one-take visual captured by Jake Erland. When speaking about her joyful new single, Olivia comments, “‘Nice To Each Other’ is a song about the push and pull of exploring your independence in dating. It’s about enjoying someone in the present and allowing it to be both light and meaningful. I think this song and video represents a playfulness in me that I’m excited for people to see.”
