The album, ‘Still On My Mind’, is her first album for six years, which features the lead single ‘Give You Up’ and sees her working with her Brother, Rollo. Speaking about the album, Dido, said: “It was simple, I only wanted to make another album if it was with him’ says Dido. ‘It was made in such an easy way, all the vocals recorded on the sofa, a lot of it recorded at home.” 

The record follows the singer’s last studio album, ‘Girl Who Got Away’, which was released in 2013, was released in 2013 to critical acclaim, reaching number five in the charts. The album’s lead single, ‘Hurricanes’, which was released on Spotify at the end of last year, has garnered nearly two million streams on the platform to-date.

Speaking of making the album, Dido, said it had been, “an absolutely magical experience.” Expressing that “I wanted to capture the feeling I still get from listening to music, just that rush like you don’t need anything more than this.”

‘Still On My Mind’ is Dido’s fifth album, the six-years in waiting follow-up to ‘Girl Who Got Away’, which was the five-years in waiting follow-up to ‘Safe Trip Home’, which was the five-years in the making follow-up to ‘Life for Rent’, which was the four-years in the making follow-up to her blockbuster 1999 debut ‘No Angel’.

With album sales topping 40 million in total, worldwide, Dido is one of the UK’s best-selling artists; both her debut No Angel, and its follow-up the seven times, platinum ‘Life For Rent’ ranking as two of the best selling albums in UK Chart history, according to the Official Charts.
