The fashionable popstar will be supported by UK acts Gracie, and pop duo Billen Ted.
Anne Marie, 31, is set to release Therapy, which will be released on July 23rd, and is the official follow-up to Anne-Marie’s multi-platinum and four million-selling 2018 debut, Speak Your Mind (the UK’s biggest-selling debut release of that year).
Who is Anne-Marie?
Anne-Marie is one of the UK's biggest artists after having collaborated with some huge names and getting some massive singles in the charts.
She was raised in East Tilbury in Essex to her Irish father, a builder and handyman from the East End of London, while her mother, a teacher, is also from Essex.
She started a career in Showbiz and Music when she first performed on the stage as a 12-year-old when she appeared in a West End production of 'Whistle Down the Wind.'
Aside from West End commitments, she spent her early years struggling to become a pop singer and also tried her luck in professional karate championships at least three times.
Anne-Marie has said that it was karate that taught her focus and discipline, the two essential characteristics of a successful musician.
After a chance meeting with an aspiring singer-songwriter, she managed to secure some studio time in Elton John’s Rocket Studios, and, after hearing what she could do, she was subsequently picked up by Elton’s management company Rocket Music.
Her debut studio album, Speak Your Mind, was released on 27 April 2018 and peaked at number three on the UK Albums Chart.
She has attained charting singles on the UK Singles Chart, including Clean Bandit's "Rockabye", featuring Sean Paul, which peaked at number one, as well as "Alarm", "Ciao Adios", "Friends", "2002" and "Don't Play".
You’ll definitely have heard a lot of the pop star's songs, including ‘Perfect To Me’, ‘FRIENDS’, ‘2002’, ‘Alarm’, ‘‘Our Song’ with Niall Horan”, ‘Birthday’, “To Be Young’ with Doja Cat”, and ‘Alarm’.
Last year, she also collaborated with Little Mix on 'Kiss My (Uh Oh)''.
As one of the most popular singers of the past few years, it's no surprise that Anne-Marie has been nominated for no less than nine BRIT Awards over the past few years.
