GRAMMY and multi-BRIT Award winner and
Mercury Prize nominee Olivia Dean celebrates the
anniversary of her acclaimed sophomore album,
The Art Of Loving. Produced with Zach Nahome,
the record is a tender and intentional exploration of
love in all its forms - romantic, platonic, self-
reflective and everything in between.
Released on 26th September 2025, The Art Of
Loving debuted straight in at Number 1 on the
Official Albums Chart, the same week that her
single Man I Need ascended to the top of the
Official Singles Chart. Dean was the first British
female solo artist to score the rare Official Chart
double since Adele four years prior in 2021.
Glimmering with thoughtful reflections on what
it means to love and be loved, The Art Of
Loving includes the singles “Nice To Each
Other,
” “Man I Need” and “So Easy (To Fall In
Love).
”
Speaking on the album, Olivia notes: “I don't
think this is a cynical thing to say but I don't
think love is just magic that happens to you, I
think you've got to put the time in, it's a craft,
it's like playing an instrument or any other
skill… I'm a romantic, hopelessly, hopelessly.
And I suppose I'm trying to just bring a little bit
of love, and loving, back into your life.
