Olivia Dean, Singer/Songwriter

Women in Music with Millie Cotton

Hello and welcome back to women in music, the podcast sharing the tales of brilliant minds in music; they all just happen to be female. 

I’m your host, Millie Cotton, and for this week’s episode, I sat down with Olivia Dean.

You might have seen Olivia Dean roaming the country in an open yellow van this summer - a summer without live music wasn’t an option for Olivia.

Her yellow truck tour was a way to maintain the momentum she’s been building ever since her poignant debut single, ‘Reason To Stay’, caught the eye of London Label AMF and since, Olivia has amassed over 8 million streams on Spotify alone.

An emotional and confessional songwriter, her musical journey started at a very young age, resulting from parents who encouraged her natural talents before recognising them herself. 

From her ingenious truck tour to her dulcet tones to her role-model potential, Olivia Dean is fast becoming a household name and an artist who knows exactly how to draw a silver lining from even the darkest of clouds. I know I say this every episode, but it was a real pleasure to chat with Olivia Dean for this episode, and here it is….

Olivia's latest single, 'Be My Own Boyfriend,' is out now. You can find Olivia on Instagram @oliviadeano.
