Mimi Webb projects a voice as magnetic, massive, and magical as her personality. As “the girl next door” with a hell of vocal range, she’s quick to laugh, will let you know precisely what’s on her mind, and isn’t afraid to be heard. Originally hailing from the UK town of Canterbury, the pop singer and songwriter turns up the volume on every emotion with skyscraping runs and open-heart honesty.
Inspired by the likes of Amy Winehouse, Emelie Sandé, and Sam Smith, she started writing songs of her own at 13-years-old in diaries before eventually learning guitar. Around the same time, she enrolled in The BRIT School—known for alumni such as Adele, Amy Winehouse, Jessie J, and more. Three years later, she left home, moved in with a host family, and attended the prestigious BIMM [British Institute of Modern Music]. In 2019, she landed management, and inked a deal with Epic Records, followed by the release of her debut single “Before I Go” in 2020.
In a whirlwind two years, Mimi released her debut EP Seven Shades of Heartbreak (October 2021), amassed an international following with multiple hit tracks such as “House on Fire,” and “Good Without,” and a Best New Artist nomination at the 2023 BRIT Awards. She has surpassed 900 million global streams to date and toured across the world- performing at festivals such as Capital FM’s Summertime Ball, Isle of Wight Festival, and Montreux Jazz Festival, as well as her own headline tours. Mimi has garnered critical acclaim from the likes of British Vogue, Rolling Stone, Harper’s BAZAAR, and Billboard, and performed on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Graham Norton Show, and ELLEN.
Now MimiWebb has releases her debut album Amelia – LISTEN HERE – via EPIC Records. The release is accompanied by the music video for “Freezing,” one of the new tracks off the record. Directed by Drew Kirsch, the stunning visual brings the lyrics to life as Mimi journeys through the process of leaving her past relationship, rediscovering her happiness, and moving forward with confidence. Watch here.
“I can’t believe my debut album is finally out. I have been working towards this for years and it feels surreal to finally be holding it in my hands. This is a body of work I feel so proud of and that really tells my journey until this point. I have been working and nurturing these songs for quite some time now and I’m so excited to finally have them out in the world,” states Mimi.
The 12-track album expands on her signature sound of breakup bops and sentimental ballads, showcased through upbeat anthems such as “Freezing,” and “Red Flags,” and poignant tracks like “Last Train To London,” and “Roles Reversed.” Titled after her full first name, Amelia, the album gives fans insight into both sides of the budding star- Amelia, the girl from the UK countryside who loves to be at home with her family, friends, and dogs; and Mimi, the pop artist who loves to be up on stage traveling the world.
Amelia has already garnered critical acclaim with Rolling Stone praising it, “a vibrant, nostalgic record of her coming-of-age voyage to self-love,” and Cosmopolitan applauding, “powerhouse vocals and lyrics that make you want to scream along, Mimi Webb is music’s next big name.”
The album arrives as Mimi’s latest smash hit “Red Flags” continues to climb the charts currently sitting at #26 at US Top 40 radio and #33 at Hot AC radio and peaked #2 on the UK Airplay Charts. Mimi performed the song on Late Show with Stephen Colbert and The Graham Norton Show.
In just two years the breakout artist has racked up over 900 million global streams to date, and multiple chart-topping tracks including “House on Fire,” “Good Without,” and most recently “Red Flags.” Mimi has performed at the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee in London, numerous festivals such as Capital FM’s Summertime Ball, Isle of Wight Festival, and Montreux Jazz Festival, and on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Graham Norton Show and ELLEN. She was nominated Best New Artist at the 2023 BRIT Awards and has garnered praise from the likes of British Vogue, Rolling Stone, Harper’s BAZAAR, GRAMMY.com, and Billboard.
Mimi will next hit the road for her 2023 headline tour, The Amelia Tour.
