Mabel has made the perilous jump from box-fresh to bona fide phenomenon strictly on her own terms and is the perfect artist to round off this year’s Summer Series on a high.

From her early promise on the Ivy to Roses mixtape, Mabel has emerged as one of UK pop’s most positive, candid and important voices. An extraordinary career arc has seen her veer from playing intimate shows to stadium touring with Harry Styles, selling out her own dates around the world (including Brixton Academy) and memorably taking to the Wembley Stadium stage in a Burberry catsuit and rainbow flag. Crowned Best Female Solo Artist at the BRIT Awards, she recently scored her twelfth top 20 hit in a career that has already surpassed 4.5 billion streams and 2.8 million adjusted album sales for a debut album.

A string of platinum selling dancefloor friendly singles has revealed an artist who can create big melodic hooks but who’s also unafraid to discuss everything from identity to the challenges of modern relationships, battling anxiety to cultural dislocation.

In between various lockdowns, Mabel first teased the single Let Them Know, an unapologetic anthem about dressing up with nowhere to go, and projecting confidence for anyone who needs it, while recent single Good Luck distilled influences of House, heartbreak and female solidarity into perfectly realised empowering pop.

With her new album About Last Night set for release on 15 July, this closing night Summer Series headline set will be the perfect setting to celebrate an artist who is very much in the ascendancy. While the girl-next-door candour remains, her superstar status shines brighter than ever before.
