Olivia Dean « The Art Of Loving »

Olivia Dean brings The Art Of Loving Live to Toronto on August 6, 2026 at Scotiabank Arena, 40 Bay Street. Raised in northeast London and a BRIT School alum, the singer and songwriter has shaped a soulful pop sound built on warm vocals, intimate writing and arrangements that lean toward the live feel. After early appearances alongside Rudimental, she stepped out solo with the EPs Ok Love You Bye (2019), What Am I Gonna Do On Sundays? (2020) and Growth (2021), blending contemporary soul, melodic pop and subtle R&B flourishes. Her debut album Messy (2023) continued that path, with lyrics circling relationships, self-worth and everyday moments.

On stage, Olivia Dean moves between stripped-back intimacy and the energy of a full band, keeping the focus on voice, harmony and an organic groove. The Art Of Loving Live extends that approach, tracing her catalogue with space for new arrangements and a direct connection with the room. An evening centered on craft and closeness, carried by concise hooks and the easy warmth that runs through her songs.
