Fresh off the back of her UK & European tour with The Jonas Brothers, British artist and songwriter Mimi Webb returns today with a pulsating new single, “One Eye Open.” Penned by Mimi, alongside Nick Hahn, Phia and Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins, the track was produced by Hahn (ZAYN, Sigrid) and is paired with a mesmerizing yet understated music video, directed by Claire Arnold and shot in Paris.
Speaking about the new track, Mimi reveals, “This song represents the transition into my independent, self-love era and serves a reminder to look after my own happiness above anything else. It came from learning from my past mistakes and from getting hurt, so I wrote it as a warning to protect myself and always keep one eye open.”
“One Eye Open” serves as the follow up to two back-to-back summer bangers, “Erase You,” which Euphoria Magazine proclaimed “will have you moving on from a bad relationship in the best way,” and “Mistake,”, which Billboard described as “starting out gesturing towards balladry before widening its stance into electro-dance territory,” leading Cosmopolitan to declare Mimi “definitely one to watch.” Both tracks found Mimi in the studio with multiple GRAMMY® Award-winning songwriter and producer Ryan Tedder, who has worked with the likes of Adele, Beyoncé, and Taylor Swift throughout his career.
Following a jam-packed summer playing electrified festival sets, including Governors Ball in New York City, Osheaga in Montreal, Lollapalooza in Chicago, and Outside Lands in San Francisco, Mimi returned home to the UK where she joined The Jonas Brothers on the extensive UK & European leg of their FIVE ALBUMS: ONE NIGHT Tour, which saw her playing to massive audiences in packed arenas, including two sold out nights at London’s iconic O2 Arena. She also recently concluded a massive North American tour with Benson Boone, her most expansive trek of live shows to date.
