Olivia recently made her much-anticipated return with her new single and accompanying video ‘Danger’, a playful, tongue-in-cheek track which playfully captures the no-turning-back-now feeling of being stood on the cusp of falling for someone, knowing that you’re going to let yourself fall. Today Olivia also shares a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of the video for ‘Danger’, directed by Malin Osafo, diving into the inspiration behind and making of the visuals.
Following performances at Glastonbury, Rock en Seine, Standon Calling and Cross The Tracks festivals this summer, Olivia has been busy working on her long-awaited debut album, expected for release in 2023.
