Olivia Dean
BBC Music Introducing Artist of the Year 2023, Olivia Dean performs for Radio 2's Piano Room from Maida Vale studios, accompanied by the BBC Concert Orchestra. Inspired by the likes of Carole King, Amy Winehouse and The Supremes, Olivia has come a long way since she joined Rudimental as a backing vocalist in 2017. Two years later, she secured her first solo contract with EMI, which led to the 2023 release of Messy, her Mercury Music Prize-nominated debut album. Olivia will be touring the UK and Europe throughout the summer of 2024. Her Piano Room set features two of her own compositions, Dive and Dangerously Easy, performed alongside a cover version of Leonard Cohen's Suzanne.
