Sam Fender Unveils ‘Rein Me In’ Collab With Olivia Dean: Listen Here

Sam Fender has teamed up with Olivia Dean on a new version of his People Watching track “Rein Me In.” 

The collaboration received its live debut earlier this month (June 6) at Fender’s sold-out show at the 82,500-capacity London Stadium, where Dean was supporting him. The pair also performed it the following week at Newcastle’s St. James Park. 

“Lots of you asking for this one after we played it at the stadium shows so here we go!!,” Fender captioned an Instagram post announcing the release, featuring him and Dean embracing on stage. Listen to their fresh take on “Rein Me In” below.

People Watching is the best-selling British album of 2025 so far, taking the No. 1 spot on the Official U.K. Albums Chart upon release with 107,000 units sold across physicals and streaming. Over the course of the summer, Fender is scheduled to support the album with more headline outdoor shows in Manchester and across Europe.

In February, the Official Charts Company confirmed that Fender became one of only nine acts to top 100,000 sales in a week this decade, joining Taylor Swift, Adele, Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Harry Styles, Take That, ABBA and Arctic Monkeys. His third U.K. No. 1, People Watching is also the fastest selling vinyl record for a British solo act this century.

Dean, meanwhile, is also reaching new heights. The north London-raised vocalist released the sprightly track “Nice To Each Other” earlier this month (June 12), which has since reached No. 18 on the Official U.K. Singles Chart – her highest placing to date. 

26-year-old Dean dropped her debut album Messy in 2023, which made the Mercury Prize shortlist that year as well as landing her a series of BRIT Award nominations. She is currently gearing up for the release of its follow-up The Art Of Loving (due Sept. 26 via Capitol), with pre-orders open now.
