“Dean sang passionately and intimately, as if you and her were the only people in the room, “Boston.com wrote about a recent concert of hers at the TD Garden. “Her rich lyrics flowed off her lips like a diary entry, unveiling every layer of vulnerability like it was her last. She was like a breath of fresh air, one that every fan desperately needed. The crowd was notably full of women, dressed up in silky tops, maxi skirts, and lots of polka dots (the uniform, it seems), many of whom brought best friends, mothers, and partners to love and hold as they sang along.”
“Together, the concert felt like a string of deep personal conversations, the same ones that you have late at night at childhood sleepovers. It was a night full of laughter, tears, and whimsy, that prompted us all to squeeze our loved ones tighter, especially as Dean shared stories of her hometown friends and her grandmother. She danced like no one was watching, staying absolutely present in all her own dazzling glory. But don’t worry, she made sure we were dancing, too.”Sounds like the place to be, Deanos.

Most recently, the 27-year-old took the stage in Boston on Aug. 10. Here’s what she performed that evening, according to Set List FM.

22.) “It Isn’t Perfect But It Might Be”
On Sept. 26, 2025, Dean dropped her second studio album “The Art of Loving.”
It also provides the answer “12 tracks and 34 minutes” to an important question.
The question, of course, is “how long does it take one to become a Deano”?
If you’re anything like us, you’ll be bobbing along to the laid-back jam “Nice To Each Other,” spacey yet deeply-felt “Lady Lady” and stripped-down showstopper “Close Up.”
Yet, the tune that will likely stick in your head — forever cementing your Deano status — is the strummy, dreamy “So Easy (To Fall In Love),” which sounds like what getting a crush feels like.
Don’t forget the mega-hit “Man I Need,” sweetly simple “Something Inbetween,” hypnotic bop “Baby Steps,” cinematic epic “A Couple Minutes” or tear-jerking ballad “I’ve Seen It” either. They’re all essential for any self-respecting Deano.
To give the record a spin, you can find “The Art of Loving” here.
Her mature timbre complements smoky, romantic instrumentals on tracks like the sensual “Friends Again,” groovy “But, Nvm” and blissed-out “Is This Love.”
You’ll swear her music was recorded in the ’60s but, nope, she was born in 1994.
The gifted vocalist delivered a quick two-song set on the Nov. 15, 2025 “Saturday Night Live” episode with host Glen Powell.
If you’d like to catch her self-assured performances, we recommend giving her bubbly rendition of “Man I Need” and slow-dance ready “Let Alone the One You Love” a well-deserved click.
Quite a few up-and-coming icons that share some songwriting DNA with Dean will be out and about these next few months.
Here are just five of our favorites you won’t want to miss live.
