Mimi Webb
Artist
Mimi performed her latest single on The Ellen Show with a full live band that included BIMM Institute London Guitar graduate Isabel Torres.
Mimi describes her sound as “very big, really emotional music”, which makes sense when looking at the musicians that she cites as her biggest influences: Amy Winehouse, Adele, Sam Smith, and Emeli Sande. This sense of big emotion shows in her songs; there’s a sense of defiance in her music, whilst being catchy and moody all at once.
Her vocal style suits her euphoric ballads perfectly. ‘Before I Go’ is no different with her powerful vocals taking over. The track was co-written by BIMM Institute Brighton songwriting alumnus Sam Merrifield, who has written toplines for Westlife, Gorgon City, James Capaldi, and loads more.
Mimi has finished 3rd in the prestigious BBC Sound of 2022 list. The list aims to showcase the most exciting rising stars in music with the acts being all hand-picked by a panel of impartial music industry experts from around the world. Mimi is currently working on her debut EP, due for release this year.
