Fresh of the back of her sold-out Australasian tour, BRIT Award nominee Mahalia has today unveiled her stunning new single ‘Do Not Disturb’. Produced by Felix Joseph, who produced a wealth of Mahalia’s previous singles including ‘Surprise Me’ and ‘That’s OK’, ‘Do Not Disturb’ demonstrates Mahalia’s desire to disconnect from a past relationship in a fun, R&B infused way.

Leicester native Mahalia enjoyed an incredible 2018, quickly becoming one of the year’s most exciting UK female artists. She rode fast in her own lane, winning YouTube’s inaugural One To Watch list and soon after became the only musician to be tipped for the BRIT’s Critics Choice Award and the BBC Sound Poll shortlists in the same year. Mahalia found success via her uncompromising, buoyant songs such as ‘One Night Only’, a single which was taken from her hotly acclaimed 2018 EP Seasons.
Mahalia released her debut single ‘Sober’ in the summer of 2016, which to date has amassed over 45 million streams. Following the release, Mahalia graced the Berlin online platform COLORS, where her performance of ‘Sober’ went viral and has since accumulated over 24 million views. View it HERE.

At 12 years old, the age most of us are aimlessly riding bikes or trying to avoid homework, Mahalia was cradling her guitar and penning love songs. With her entrancing, soulful tones, wise-yet-relatable wordplay and intuitive sense of melody, it quickly became clear that she had an innate musicality and that she’d be doing this for the rest of her life. In the time since she first picked up that guitar she’s dropped a scattering of releases, from 2012’s indie-flecked acoustic dream Head Space to 2015’s gorgeously understated 4-track EP Never Change and 2016’s genre-flipping mixtape Diary of Me. But for Mahalia, it feels as if she’s just getting started.
Mahalia recently graced Australian shores for the first time over summer, delighting audiences at Falls Festival and Field Day and selling out headline shows in both Sydney and Melbourne.
