News about Eras Tour • Gracie Abrams
Gracie Abrams, one of Taylor Swift’s most frequent opening acts on the record-breaking Eras Tour, recently shared an intimate look into her experience during the final show in Vancouver on December 8. Speaking with Nylon in an interview published on December 17, Abrams described the day as bittersweet and unforgettable.
“The energy backstage felt like the last day of school,” the 25-year-old singer-songwriter revealed. “Everyone was crying, walking around with Sharpies, signing each other’s Eras Tour books. It was so emotional.” For Abrams, the end of the tour was not just the conclusion of a professional chapter but the culmination of a deeply personal journey.
Abrams had been part of the Eras Tour for 49 shows, a run that took her across the globe alongside Swift, who she described as a mentor and a friend. The opportunity to share the stage with the 14-time Grammy winner, 35, was life-changing for Abrams, not just as an artist but as an individual.
“I’ve been in awe of Taylor from the start,” Abrams shared. “Every moment I spent on that tour was a chance to learn from her—not just about music, but about connecting with people. Watching her command a stadium while making it feel like an intimate space is something I’ll carry with me forever. Even our casual conversations taught me something new.”
Abrams revealed that she watched every one of Swift’s performances while on the tour, soaking in the artistry and energy. On nights she wasn’t performing, she tuned into live streams of Swift’s shows to continue learning.
The Good Riddance singer reflected on the whirlwind growth she experienced throughout the tour, noting how her career skyrocketed during this time. Starting fresh off her debut album, Good Riddance, Abrams saw a shift in her engagement levels after releasing her October single “That’s So True.”
“It was wild to see how one song could change the way audiences responded,” she said. “Hearing thousands of voices sing your lyrics back in a stadium—it’s a surreal, almost out-of-body experience. I’d just stand there thinking, ‘What is happening right now?’”
One of the tour’s most memorable highlights came on November 16 at Toronto’s Rogers Centre. Swift surprised fans by bringing Abrams onstage to perform a mashup of “Out of the Woods” from Swift’s 1989 album and their collaboration, “Us,” from Abrams’ The Secret of Us album. It was a magical moment that left both performers and fans buzzing.
Abrams reminisced about their earlier performance of “Us” at London’s Wembley Stadium in June, calling it a defining moment in her career. “Taylor has this incredible ability to make a stadium feel like it’s just the two of you sharing a secret. It’s something I hope to emulate in my own way as I move forward.”
Reflecting on her journey, Abrams expressed a mix of gratitude and sadness as the tour wrapped. “It’s hard to process that this chapter is over. The Eras Tour wasn’t just a series of concerts—it was a global phenomenon, a shared source of light. It’s humbling to think I got to be a part of that.”
As she looks ahead, Abrams plans to bring the lessons she learned from Swift to her own stage. She’s preparing for the North American leg of her solo tour, which kicks off in July 2025. “This experience has shaped me in ways I’m still discovering,” she said. “I feel more prepared and inspired than ever to step into the next phase of my career.”
Though the Eras Tour has come to an end, the impact it left on Abrams—and millions of fans worldwide—will resonate for years to come.
