Ever since she shared her debut single “Know Me Better” last summer, 21-year-old Londoner Mabel has been impressing us time and again with her gorgeous ’90s R&B-inspired sound. Inspiring a remix by Shura and landing a feature spot alongside D.R.A.M. on SBTRKT’s “I Feel Your Pain,” the singer/songwriter is back with a new single.
Drawing on the troubles that surround dealing with relationships in an ever-evolving environment, “Thinking of You” is a song about missing people and one’s home. The song’s theme is made visceral by Mabel’s yearning vocals backed by nostalgic, soaring production. Says Mabel of single: “Relationships with cities are similar to relationships with people, being away from both can really make you appreciate what you have.”
Mabel was recently commissioned to create a video project to commemorate the opening of the new Tate Modern building, soundtracked by the specially-written new single, “Talk About Forever.”
