Before she became Mel C of the Spice Girls, she was Melanie Chisholm—an 18-year-old discovering rave culture in early ’90s Spain. Immersed in the UK’s emerging club scene, that formative love of dance music would quietly shape her future. Now, it comes full circle with her new album Sweat, released 1st May.
A euphoric, club-ready record, Sweat is both a love letter to those early dancefloor experiences and a celebration of joy, connection and escapism. Written and recorded across London, Stockholm, LA and Sydney, it fuses Chisholm’s pop pedigree with her evolution as a respected DJ.
Tracks like “A Place Where We Belong” channel pure, communal euphoria, while the title track delivers an electro-house punch, sampling Diana Ross and built for both the gym and the club.
Alongside its high-energy moments, Sweat retains Chisholm’s emotional honesty, exploring resilience, heartbreak and self-renewal. It’s a record shaped by experience—balancing vulnerability with uplift.
Decades on from global superstardom, Melanie C remains a singular force: a chart-topping artist, DJ and performer equally at home in underground clubs and stadiums—now reconnecting with her roots to deliver her most joyful, liberated work yet.
