The Art of Loving
Olivia Dean
The star risen reaffirms the complexities of love in powerful soul-full affirmation, The Art of Loving. From 2023’s Messy, Olivia Dean has been a powerful force of beautiful neo-soul arrangements ever since she first sprung into people’s lives with Ok Love You Bye in 2019. In just six years – including a global pandemic – Dean has amassed a BBC Music Introducing Artist of the Year accolade in 2023, earned a Mercury Prize nomination through her debut, took over London for a 3-night sold out run at the iconic Eventim Apollo and now is set to accomplish peak charting nomination with her sophomore follow-up. The Art of Loving is a confident self-affirming love story of a songwriter cementing her spot in a growing pool of female UK-born vocalists. Jazzy piano trills, ambient soundscapes, lush strings and compelling vocals disperse through a near-perfect triumph – a perfect accompaniment as we see in Autumn.
