Olivia Rodrigo has teamed up with Netflix for the release of her ‘GUTS World Tour’ concert special on the streaming giant.
The ‘Get Him Back’ singer’s concert special – which was filmed at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles – will be available to stream on October 29. The special will give fans insight to the pop singer’s massive sold-out arena tour.
“I am so excited to share the GUTS World Tour with my fans,” Rodrigo said in a statement. “For those of you who didn’t get a chance to rock out in-person, now you can have the best seats in the house! And to the fans who cheered, screamed, and danced with me, I am so glad we get to do it all over again!”
The arena tour was in support of Rodrigo’s second studio LP ‘Guts‘. In a glowing five-star review of the album, NME shared: “‘Guts’ doesn’t just feel transitional in a musical sense. It marks the end of Rodrigo’s teenage years, a moment that has gravity given that she recently said in a statement that she felt like she grew “10 years” between the ages of 18 and 20.
“Here, she offers blunt self-analysis while reflecting on wider cultural ideas of performance and swallowing anger in order to comply with the wants and needs of others. It works as a display of real power, range and versatility – all of which Rodrigo possesses in abundance.”
Previously speaking to NME as part of The Big Read, Rodrigo opened up about her songwriting process and shared: “I’ve always been such an oversharer. I’ll tell my Uber driver all of my deepest traumas and insecurities, and so I just think songwriting for me is an extension of that aspect of my personality. I’ve never really been so terrified of people learning about the intimate parts of myself; I think that’s what makes songwriting so special.”
In a four-star review of her live show at London’s O2 arena, NME shared: “It’s the songs that pick at the deepest wounds that resonate with tonight’s crowd. ‘Vampire’’s stunning build from a piano ballad to jaunty clap-back to the people who should know better is one of many howl-along moments. The raw regret of ‘Drivers Licence’ brought her to this venue a few years ago, but now, it’s sung with both the lived experience and confidence that comes only from someone who’s moved on to even bigger and better things; there’s no denying that Rodrigo has certainly done that and will continue to do so.”
In other news, Rodrigo is set to headline Lollapalooza’s South American festival editions next year. The festivals will take place in Brazil, Argentina and Chile and will mark the pop singer’s first time performing in the countries.
