Olivia Rodrigo, singer-songwriter-actress released the dates for her “GUTS” world tour in February and it ends on August 7. So it’s been an exceedingly successful first world tour for the three time grammy winning artist and a large one at that seeing that it’s expected to gross over $100 million. 

Rodrigo’s tour showcases her raw talent, authenticity, and magnetic stage presence. She takes listeners into the depths of her experiences as she navigates love, heartbreak, and self-discovery and really represents what it means to connect with an audience with emotional vulnerability thanks to her soulful vocals and moving lyrics. Every performance, which ranges from passionate ballads to energetic hits, demonstrates Rodrigo’s capacity to deeply connect with her devoted fan base.

Alex Burkman, a sophomore who was on the Chicago leg of the tour says the experience was unforgettable.

“It was very comforting to be in a space with thousands of people bonding over a shared appreciation for deeply impactful music, I won’t forget it.”

Many fans took off on the media stating how the performance exceeded their expectations. After reviewing a few videos for myself, the performances were astonishingly good, from the dynamic visuals and choreography to the touching lyrics and interactions with the audience it was truly a gorgeous performance.

Overall, for her incredible production and vocals, her ticket prices are pretty fair ranging from $49 to $499 for more premium seats. Rodrigo’s impact on music can be felt across multiple fronts, from her emotional resonance with listeners to her influence on pop culture and the industry’s evolving landscape. As she continues to grow and evolve as an artist, there’s no doubt that she will be a pillar in shaping the future of music.
