\n\tOlivia Dean<\/a> has announced details of her upcoming second studio album, The Art of Loving, and shared lead single \u201cNice to Each Other.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tDean will release her new LP on Sept. 26 via Capitol Records, and it will be the follow-up to 2023 debut Messy. Her debut album hit No. 4 on the U.K.\u2019s Official Albums Chart<\/a> and was nominated for the Mercury Prize that year, ultimately losing out to Ezra Collective\u2019s Where I\u2019m Meant to Be.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tIn a press release, Dean says that \u201c\u2019Nice to Each Other\u201d is a song about the push and pull of exploring your independence in dating. It\u2019s about enjoying someone in the present and allowing it to be both light and meaningful. I think this song and video represents a playfulness in me that I\u2019m excited for people to see.\u201d<\/p>\n
