Press Release

London - March 17, 2025

LONDON, UK – Multi-platinum, MOBO, and Brit Award-winning artist Lisa Maffia is set to reclaim her crown this spring with two monumental milestones: a headline performance at a sold-out O2 Arena and the release of her floor-filling new single, ‘Fever’, on 24th April 2026.

Fresh from headlining Garage Nation at The O2 on 3rd April—a 20,000-capacity sell-out event produced by Majestic—the “Queen of UK Garage” is pivoting into a sophisticated house sound that highlights her evolution as a complete musical architect.

‘Fever’ is more than just a vocal performance; it marks a significant shift for Maffia, who takes the lead as both singer-songwriter and producer on the track. Collaborating with London’s rising house star Molly Mouse, Maffia has crafted a record that blends her iconic melodic heritage with the punchy basslines and old-school house flavours that have become Molly Mouse’s signature at venues like Creamfields, Ibiza Rocks, and Studio 338.

“This record is a real milestone for me,” says Lisa Maffia. “Being at the helm of the production as well as the songwriting has allowed me to bring a specific energy to ‘Fever’ that feels like the perfect bridge between my garage roots and the house music I love. Performing at a sold-out O2 Arena just weeks before the release is the ultimate way to kick off this new chapter.”

The single, released via Vivifier Records, serves as the definitive lead-up to Maffia’s highly anticipated 2026 studio album. It captures a seasoned artist at the height of her powers, seamlessly moving from the stage of the UK’s biggest arena back to the heart of the underground dancefloor.

‘Fever’ will be available on all major streaming platforms and digital stores on 24th April 2026.
