breaking into the music scene<\/a> through TikTok in 2020 and taking part in \u201cfun little dance\u201d trends, the 25-year-old\u2019s debut single Before I Go racked up more than 85 million views on the platform.<\/p>\nSince then, Mimi has gone on to release a range with Primark, an EP, Seven Shades of Heartbreak, and two albums, Amelia and Confessions, with a third on the way.<\/p>\n
Having now released her new deluxe album Confessions: An Unexpected Turn of Events, which features five new tracks showcasing her \u201cevolving pop sound\u201d, Mimi said she is continuing to experiment with new sounds.<\/p>\n
She told kmfm: \u201cWe knew there was going to be a deluxe. There was just so much music and songs that I loved, and with the deluxe, I think there is more of a country-pop swing to it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mimi Webb grew up in Canterbury<\/p>\n
Outside of music, Mimi enjoys horse riding, a hobby she has been doing since the age of five, and said implementing country into the album was a way of \u201cmixing those two worlds\u201d.<\/p>\n
She added: \u201cIt is another way of showing who I am and introducing myself to people.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mimi also spoke about the meanings behind the songs on her new album, which she has been writing for the past two years.<\/p>\n
She said: \u201cEyes Closed is about a rebound relationship, Stay Single was my single era, and My Go is about coming out of a breakup and wanting to put yourself first.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese songs were really written in different times of my life. You grow so much as a person in your 20s, and I feel that naturally came out of me with these ideas and different stories.\u201d<\/p>\n

But Mimi does not take her music too seriously all the time, and says it is important to savour the time.<\/p>\n
She added: \u201cWith music in general, it is just so fun, you have got to be light with it and enjoy it. In six years, it can go so fast.\u201d<\/p>\n
The singer-songwriter also revealed she is in the studio working on her third album and plans to use a more emotional sound, like her debut single Before I Go.<\/p>\n
