Gracie Abrams is the indie-pop star returns to the UK & Europe for The Look At My Life Tour. Coming to Glasgow’s OVO Hydro on 27th & 28th April 2027.

Gracie Abrams is an American singer-songwriter who made her debut in 2019 with ‘Mean It’ and has since earned admirers in the likes of Taylor Swift and Lorde as she steadily ascends pop’s upper ranks.

Abrams’ interest in music began aged eight, having been exposed to Joni Mitchell’s songwriting by her mother while growing up in Los Angeles. Now in her twenties, the ‘I miss you, I’m sorry’ singer has a Joni-inspired tattoo and has amassed swathes of fans with whom her own brand of anguished lyricism resonates.

Finding her feet during a time of Covid restrictions and shows performed to fans via Zoom, Gracie Abrams released her debut project minor in the summer of 2020. Produced by Blake Slatkin, Joel Little and Benny Blanco, the seven-song project (featuring ’21’ and ‘Long Sleeves’) was received to great critical acclaim, with NME describing it as “painfully honest tales of heartbreak draped in delicate melodies that carry much more intrigue than the usual run-of-the-mill singer-songwriter.” 

In 2021, Abrams returned with This Is What It Feels Like, a 12-track effort cataloguing complex emotions of self-betrayal and insecurity. She embarked on a sold-out North American tour in support of the EP in early 2022, whilst also taking a support slot for Olivia Rodrigo’s Sour Tour alongside Chappell Roan, Holly Humberstone and Baby Queen. 

Later that year, she released ‘Difficult’, the lead single to her debut album Good Riddance in 2023. Produced by Aaron Dessner of The National, Good Riddance cemented Gracie Abrams as an accomplished singer-songwriter of the newly-coined ‘whisperpop’ generation, with emotional complexity beyond her years. Rolling Stone named it “one of 2023’s best debuts” and hailed Abrams as “one of pop’s buzziest artists”.

Good Riddance marked her third headlining concert tour, with Abrams soon nominated for Best New Artist in the 66th Grammy Awards. New opportunities ensued, from the inclusion of her song ‘Cedar’ on the soundtrack of the Apple TV+ series The Buccaneers, to her feature on the Billboard-charting remix of ‘Everywhere, Everything’ by Noah Kahan. 2023 also saw Abrams named in Forbes’ 30 Under 30 list. 

Amid this growing success, Gracie Abrams landed a coveted opening slot for the US leg of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour. A self-professed Swiftie, the pair first met after Abrams was called (seemingly out of the blue) from an unknown number to join Swift’s birthday party back in December 2021. Fast-forward to now, Abrams counts the ‘Anti-Hero’ singer as a close friend and collaborator.

Gracie Abrams’ second album, The Secret of Us (produced again by Aaron Dessner) was released in June 2024. Featuring the tracks ‘Risk’, ‘Close To You’ and a rare Taylor Swift collab ‘us.’, Rolling Stone noted that The Secret of Us sees Abrams “take her sad-girl pop to the next level”.

With her third studio album Daughter From Hell set for release in July 2026 and a headline arena tour across the UK and Europe in 2027, Abrams shows no signs of slowing her meteoric rise.
