About this listen
In the past few days Gracie Abrams has been the center of major headlines with a whirlwind of high-profile performances notable celebrity sightings and viral social media moments. Gracie headlined two sold-out nights at Los Angeles’ iconic Kia Forum as part of her Secret of Us Deluxe Tour drawing in a high-wattage audience including Paul Mescal Lucy Hale Noah Beck Tyler Blackburn and Lola Tung among others who were spotted singing and celebrating in the crowd according to TMZ. The concerts were marked by powerful emotional sets including a buzzworthy live debut of the new song Mini Bar performed alongside her childhood friend and songwriting partner Audrey Hobert. The pair’s collaborative chemistry lit up the stage especially as they reminisced about their fifth grade friendship and harmonized on That’s So True giving fans a heartfelt glimpse behind their creative process as covered by JamBase.
One of the highlight moments came when Gracie delivered a stunning ten-minute cover of Taylor Swift’s All Too Well a nod to her close connection with Swift who she supported on the Eras Tour. Her performance of All Too Well sent Swifties into a frenzy and further cemented her reputation for raw storytelling and emotional depth according to Vinyl Me Please and confirmed by audience social media posts. This connection with Taylor continues to shape Gracie’s narrative as she actively engages fans on Instagram and TikTok sharing glimpses of rehearsals backstage camaraderie and personal reflections from the road all of which have helped her build a tight-knit online following.
On the social media front Gracie found herself the subject of widespread discussion after Drake posted about her on his Instagram Stories on August 5. In what HuffPost called a weird post Drake compared his own birthmark to Gracie’s and mused that she turned it into art which sparked both amusement and criticism on X formerly Twitter with many fans declaring it strange and some poking fun at Drake’s apparent obsession. At the moment Gracie has not responded to these posts and her team remains quiet on the matter.
Besides celebrity drama and blockbuster concerts Abrams has also been maintaining serious festival momentum performing at Lollapalooza in Chicago where she surprised fans with a duet of Dancing On My Own with Robyn and then headed north for a warmly received set at Osheaga in Montreal despite a weather-shortened appearance. She recently made a splash at a private Boston event performing alongside Elton John further boosting her musical credibility. With a major set at Outside Lands coming up and her tour wrapping in Mexico City later this month Gracie’s present activities signal not only a star on the rise but an artist defined by her genuine connection to fans genre-blurring performances and enviable industry alliances. Long-term this surge in visibility diverse collaborations and willingness to embrace new formats might be the springboard towards an even broader mainstream breakthrough or a bold new musical direction.
