British-Swedish singer-songwriter Mabel will play an outdoor show at Fairview Park, Dublin on June 28th.

The R&B/pop sensation (full name Mabel Alabama-Pearl McVey) had her breakthrough in 2017 with 'Finders Keepers', which peaked at number eight on the UK Singles Chart.

Her debut studio album, High Expectations, entered the UK Albums Chart at number three and was certified platinum. The London-based act performed at the Academy four years ago and had two sold out shows at the Olympia Theatre in 2020.

Mabel is exploring club culture in bold, brilliant new ways on her upcoming album, About Last Night..., a vivid and hyperreal journey from the unknown start to the messy end of the night out that never was.

Throughout, songs transport the minutiae - getting ready; feeling invincible; clocking an ex; crying in the bathroom; friends lifting you up; the group stumbling home - and ultimately transform normality into the majestic. A notable shift from the disco-fantasia which blossomed early in the pandemic, About Last Night... distills the sweaty, grotty and unglamorous side of noughties club-culture, with influences spanning house, trance, rave, R&B, and the melting pot of young London.

The 25-year-old aims to create an online soundtrack of nighttime euphoria with the process of growing up in the public eye.

The project is introduced by first single, ‘Let Them Know’ - an anthem of positivity, defiance, and dressing up with nowhere to go. Mabel wrote the track alongside Raye and SG Lewis in the shared mission of creating 2021’s answer to ‘Vogue’. By this stage of lockdown, Mabel had skipped the national grief of banana-bread-baking in favour of throwing herself into dance classes, obsessively re-watching Paris Is Burning, Pose and Drag Race, and reflecting on the club as a historical haven for the marginalised.

“My Mum has always been part of the LGBTQ+ community,” Mabel says, “and I grew up in an unconventional house that always had amazing Queens and all sorts of backgrounds around me. I wanted to pay tribute to that energy and write something that was deliberately over-confident for me, but came from a place of being vulnerable.”

Mabel’s music to come was made remotely between stints locked-down in London and Los Angeles. Further names on the record include friends and frequent songwriting partners MNEK, Jax Jones, Kamille, Steve Mac, Jordan Riley and Tre Jean-Marie as well as new collaborators from pop’s top-table, like Stargate (Rihanna, Katy Perry), Tommy Brown (Ariana Grande, Victoria Monet), Jozzy (Beyoncé, Lil Nas X), and Aldae (Justin Bieber).
