15 AUGUST 2025 (TORONTO, ON) — Multi-BRIT Award and Mercury Prize nominee OLIVIA DEAN today releases MAN I NEED - the third single to be taken from her highly-anticipated second album The Art of Loving, out on 26th September, via Capitol Records.

Man I Need hits like a bolt of pure positivity, a fearless love song powered by a driving rhythm section and Olivia’s smooth soul vocal. The accompanying video was directed by Jake Erland and features the same creative team behind the incredible visuals for previous singles Lady Lady and Nice To Each Other; of which stylistically the new visual serves as a ‘sister-video’ to the latter; watch here from 3pm BST.

On the track, Olivia said; “Man I Need is a song about knowing how you deserve to be loved and not being afraid to ask for it. It’s forward, sexy, fun! It’s made for dancing!”

Olivia has just finished an extremely successful run of sold out live shows across North America, culminating in two nights at The Fonda Theatre in LA, treating fans to new material and as well as favourites from her debut album, Messy.

Messy received widespread critical acclaim on release and cemented her status as one of the most compelling voices across neo-soul and pop. More recently Olivia has been opening for Sam Fender on his run of UK headline shows, including a show at London Stadium where they performed their new collaboration on Sam’s track Rein Me In for the first time, in front of a sold out crowd - listen here; and will also join Sam on his upcoming headline dates in Manchester and Edinburgh. She recently performed with Sabrina Carpenter at her BST Hyde Park show on July 6th and will be joining her again on a string of US dates in October and November, including five sold out nights at Madison Square Garden.

With her signature warmth and lyrical honesty, Olivia Dean invites listeners into a new era of sound and storytelling on her upcoming new album. Poised as a tender, intentional deep dive into the many dimensions of love - romantic, platonic, self, and everything in between - The Art of Loving begins an exciting new chapter from one of the UK’s most mesmerising artists.
