Get to know who will be performing with Taylor Swift on her upcoming tour:

“Misery Business” 

“Hard Times” 

“Ain’t It Fun” 

“Playing God” 

“Emergency” 

beabadoobee

Song Recommendations: 

“Tired” 

“10:36” 

“Apple Cider” 

“Sunny Day” 

“the perfect pair” 

Phoebe Bridgers 

Rising to fame after their album Stranger in the Alps this indie artist quickly rose to fame being known for their heart-wrenching lyricism. Working with Swift on Red (Taylor’s Version) her being on this tour only makes sense. 

Song Recommendations:

“Kyoto” 

“Moon Song” 

“Nothing New” 

“ICU” 

“Waiting Room”

This Norwegian artist credits Taylor Swift for their inspiration for songwriting. This artist started their music career in 2017 and quickly became a bedroom pop indie icon. With a majority of their music being about her queer experiences.

“Home By Now” 

“Loudspeaker” 

“Silk Chiffon”

“no body, no crime” 

“Go Slow” 

“Leaning On You” 

“Man from the Magazine”

Song Recommendations: 

“abcdefu” 

“fmk” 

Gracie Abrams 

Crediting Taylor Swift and Phoebe Bridgers as her musical inspiration it only makes sense that Gracie Abrams is on this tour. Known for having a guitar or piano playing in the background of most of her gives them a very personal and raw feel to them.

“I miss you, I’m sorry”
