Gracie Abrams is a very successful singer-songwriter who has recently risen to pop-culture fame with the release of her new ground-breaking album “The Secret Of Us” on June 21, 2024.
Since she released the album, it became an absolute hit that fans are still obsessed with, the album even reaching one billion streams on Spotify and #2 on the Billboard 200 on June 30, 2024. On Oct. 18, 2024, she released “The Secret Of Us (Deluxe),” featuring four new unreleased songs and three live recorded song renditions.
Leading up to the success of her recent album and her popularity, on May 1, 2024, Abrams released the second track of the album “Risk,” which quickly climbed the Billboard Hot 100 and Spotify charts, trending everywhere. Then on June 7, 2024, she released “Close To You,” which was also a huge hit. Some trending songs on social media from the album include “That’s So True,” “I Love You, I’m Sorry,” “Risk,” “Close To You,” and “us. (feat. Taylor Swift).”
Abrams opened for pop-star and close friend Taylor Swift at the Eras Tour during the U.S. and Canada leg of her tour, which concluded in Toronto on Dec. 8, 2024 with Abrams playing a total of 49 shows with Swift. Abrams featured Swift in her song “us.” from her new album, which they performed together during the surprise song set at the Eras Tour in London night three on June 23, 2024. On Nov. 8, 2024, Abrams and Swift were nominated for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for “us.” at the 2025 Grammys.
Abrams announced the U.S. leg of her international tour on June 3, 2024, which opened on Sept. 5, 2024 in Portland, OR, and ended on Oct. 15, 2024 in Philadelphia, PA. On the day of the presale on June 4, 2024, her fans sold out the first night in LA, so due to high demand and popularity, she added two additional nights in Los Angeles: Sept. 9 and Sept. 12. During Abrams’ three nights in Los Angeles she performed at the Greek Theatre, with opening artist Role Model.
Abrams is currently on the European/U.K. leg of her tour through early March, 2025 and will be starting the Australia/New Zealand portion of the tour starting in late April through May, 2025.
On Dec. 9, 2024, Abrams announced “The Secret Of Us Deluxe Tour” premiering in Boston, MA on July 24, 2025 through late August. So far, we only have dates for six shows in six different cities, touring in Toronto, New York, Los Angeles, Morrison and Mexico City. Abrams plays in LA at the Kia Forum on Aug. 6, 2025, which is a huge upgrade from the Greek where she performed in September of this year, due to the amount of fans and popularity that Abrams has gained over the past year.
Vienna Stonis is a sophomore in PEACE and is a huge fan of Abrams’ music. She’s an avid concert-goer and went to LA nights one and two (Sept. 9 and Sept. 12) of the tour, and has already secured her tickets to the Deluxe Tour in August to see Abrams for the fourth time. “The tour was so amazing and it was my favorite concert I’ve ever been to, and that’s saying something,” says Stonis. “The crowd was pretty cool and my seats were good. I rate it a 21/10,” adds Stonis, referring to Abrams’ favorite number (21) and song “21.”
Stonis loved the concert and said she was the loudest person there—she even shed tears of joy—and that she’s been a die-hard fan of Abrams since 2022 when she announced her album “Good Riddance.”
Abrams’ musical journey started in 2019 when she released her first single “Mean It” and has come a long way since then. Abrams has released two EP’s, “minor” (July 14, 2020) and “This Is What It Feels Like” (Nov. 12, 2021) and two studio albums, “Good Riddance” (Feb. 23, 2023) followed by “The Secret Of Us.” Abrams began to grow increasingly more popular over the past few years with the huge success of her music. However the success of “The Secret Of Us” really helped her rise to fame along with many other famous artists such as Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo, Sabrina Carpenter, Chappell Roan, Billie Eillish and more.
