Sydney and Melbourne are home to two of her largest fan bases globally, with more than 620,000 monthly listeners in Sydney and 500,000 in Melbourne on Spotify.
Olivia’s debut album Messy peaked at #4 on the UK Albums Chart and earned a nomination for the 2023 Mercury Prize, while the British star went on to secure nods for Best Pop Act, Best New Artist, and British Artist of the Year at the 2024 BRIT Awards.
Now she is ready to usher in a new era with her highly anticipated second album, The Art of Loving, released on Friday.
Already, the record is making waves in Australia.

Her catalogue boasts multiple certified hits in Australia, including Platinum singles The Hardest Part and Dive, as well asGold certifications for Ok Love You Bye, Nice To Each Other, and Man I Need.

Looking ahead, her newly announced Australian Arena Tour for October 2026 has already seen second shows added in Sydney and Melbourne to meet demand. The night after taking to the ARIA Awards stage, Dean will perform to a sold-out crowd for a one-night-only outdoor show set against the harbour at The Fleet Steps, Mrs Macquaries Point, Sydney.
