Rodrigo is currently one of the biggest names in pop music at the age of just 23, with four US and UK number one singles, and both of her albums also topping charts here. Singles like her debut ‘Drivers License’, ‘Good 4 U’ and ‘Vampire’ were all incredibly popular, with ‘Drivers License’ winning a Grammy for Best Pop Solo Performance and ‘Good 4 U’ taking home the Brit Award for International Song of the Year in 2022. Her debut album ‘Sour’, released in 2021, is still Spotify’s most streamed album by a female artist.

With third album ‘you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love’ due for release in June, Rodrigo’s continued chart-dominance shows no sign of letting up – its lead single ‘Drop Dead’ released two weeks ago, shooting straight to UK Number One last week. In an interview with British Vogue back in March, she says the album draws inspiration from time spent living in London, is packed with “sad love songs”, and will be her “most experimental” release yet. NME report that it will contain a darker sound and influences from acts such as The Cure, New Order and Joy Division, as well as a potential feature from Geese frontman Cameron Winter.

The ‘Unraveled Tour’ was announced today, a blockbuster lap of North America and Europe which will see Olivia Rodrigo perform 65 dates over 9 months. Support varies between dates, with a cast consisting of Devon Again, Die Spitz, Grace Ives, The Last Dinner Party, and Wolf Alice. It kicks off this September in Hartford, Connecticut, travelling across the US and Canada before touching down in Stockholm next March for the European leg. Before it wraps, she’ll play four nights at the O2 Arena in London, with Grace Ives opening. In a post on Instagram, Rodrigo said “i am so so excited to announce The Unraveled Tour!!! I am counting down the days till I get to sing all of the songs from ‘you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love’ with u guys!!!”

The ‘Unraveled’ tour will run from the 25th of September this year to the 2nd of May 2027. Dates at the London O2 Arena are on the 5th, 6th, 8th and 9th of April next year.
