Olivia Dean invites you, the listener, into the heartwarming world of her album, Messy, with the release of her new single – and four-track EP – ‘Ladies Room.’ The track is a vivid portrayal of the community and unexpected camaraderie often found between strangers in the women’s bathroom.
Inspired by an encounter in her local pub’s restroom – where a stranger candidly shared details about a relationship with a partner two decades her senior – Ladies Room is a tribute to the shared experiences that bring women together. Olivia’s ability to extract humour and humanity from real moments is a showcase of her songwriting expertise and production.
The ‘Ladies Room’ EP is a four-track offering that captures the essence of her magnetic live performances. The radio edit of the track is a blend of infectious melodies and soulful vocals. The EP also features a live version of the track recorded at her sold-out headline show at London’s Somerset House, providing a taste of the electric energy she brings to the stage.
Adding to the EP’s brilliance is a live recording of Olivia’s much-loved cover of Andre 3000 and Kelis’ ‘Millionaire.’ The cover showcases Olivia’s ability to breathe new life into iconic tracks.
Olivia’s relevance doesn’t stop at her musical talent, as there’s a psychological dimension to her music that resonates on a personal level. The narratives she weaves in her music, such as ‘Ladies Room,’ don’t just entertain but also create an emotional connection. This EP is a small showcase of her storytelling in music, offering listeners an immersive experience.
