Scott Mills sits in with Mabel choosing the Tracks of My Years

BRIT Award-winning singer Mabel chooses the Tracks of My Years. Scott's got another round of PopMaster and your dedications with today's love song.

BRIT Award-winning singer Mabel chooses the Tracks of My Years with Scott all this week. Born in the mountains of Malaga, Spain, the 25 year old artist first burst on to the music scene in 2015 with her debut single 'Know Me Better'. Her early material led to the surprise breakthrough of 'Finders Keepers' in 2017 which went platinum, spending five weeks in the top ten and saw her nominated for the Critics' Choice Award at the BRITs. She's gone on to tour with stars such as Harry Styles, selling out her own dates around the world including playing at Wembley to a packed stadium whilst flying the rainbow flag. She's the daughter of producer Cameron McVey, best known for his seminal work with Massive Attack, Portishead, Sugababes and All Saints, while Mabel's mother is Neneh Cherry, the cross-generational music and style superstar who enjoyed chart success in the late eighties and early nineties with hits such as 'Buffalo Stance' and 'Manchild'.

In 2019 Mabel achieved her biggest hit single to date with ‘Don’t Call Me Up’, co-written by Steve Mac - whose other hits include Ed Sheeran’s ‘Shape Of You’ and Years & Years’ ‘If You’re Over Me’. Last year she was crowned Best British Female Solo Artist at the Brit Awards.

Her brand new single 'Let Them Know' is out now and she'll be performing live at various festivals throughout the summer including Latitude, Reading and Leeds.

The next two tracks Mabel has chosen come from Sugababes and Justin Timberlake. Scott also has the daily love song, record and album of the week plus another round of PopMaster. If you'd like to get in touch email Scott.Mills@bbc.co.uk
