British singer-songwriter Mimi Webb is back today with “One Eye Open,” a soulful new single that marks the beginning of a self-love journey from the artist. The track follows a string of energetic appearances throughout Europe and the UK alone, where she supported The Jonas Brothers on their FIVE ALBUMS: ONE NIGHT tour, selling out back-to-back nights at iconic venues across the continent, including London’s O2 Arena.
Having been co-written by Mimi Webb, Nick Hahn, Phia, and the legend himself Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins, “One Eye Open” expresses this change in her mindset. It’s a resilient story of survival mixed with self-preservation, covered with a pulsating pop melody. Production credits on this track go to Hahn, who has previously worked with artists like ZAYN and Sigrid, adding in a sleek sonic touch to Webb’s unique sound.
Speaking to the inspiration behind the song, Mimi says, “This song represents the transition into my independent, self-love era. It’s 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.”
The track is accompanied by a stunning music video filmed in Paris, directed by Claire Arnold. The visual is elegantly minimalistic and truly captures the reflective yet powerful overtones of the track. Subtle aesthetics lead to an unprecedented emotional message that Mimi brings forth with her lyrics.
“One Eye Open” is followed by two other hit singles, “Erase You” and “Mistake,” which solidified Mimi’s position in the pop world. Euphoria Magazine dubbed “Erase You” a flawless post-breakup anthem, while Billboard praised “Mistake” for its cool melodic meshing of ballad and electro-dance elements. Her studio collaboration with Ryan Tedder, who has worked with the likes of Beyoncé and Taylor Swift, was key in making these hits pop, seamlessly showing her eclecticism as a rising pop powerhouse.
This summer, Mimi Webb’s touring schedule has piled up with stops through some of North America’s largest festivals, including Governors Ball, Osheaga, Lollapalooza, and Outside Lands. Her high-energy sets at these events helped grow her already-devoted fanbase, who screamed along with emotional lyrics and beats.
After this intoxicating summer, Mimi returned to the UK to join The Jonas Brothers on their European tour leg and played sold-out arenas to several thousand fans. The long run of dates marked a major milestone for the young artist, who is rapidly turning into one of the most exciting new voices in pop music.
Now that “One Eye Open” is out globally, Mimi Webb is nowhere near slowing down. Her mix of infectious pop melodies and introspective lyrics has continued to resonate with fans around the world. Entering into this new era of independence and self-empowerment, Mimi is promising more soulful music and news in the near future.
Stay tuned-this is only the beginning.
