SUMMARY:Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour
DESCRIPTION:After shattering records with her chart-topping, 4x Platinum debut album SOUR &ndash; the fastest album in history to have all of its songs certified RIAA Platinum or higher &ndash; Olivia Rodrigo made a monumental return with her sophomore album GUTS, revealing newly heightened sophistication as a vocalist and lyricist. Produced by and co-written with Daniel Nigro (her main creative partner onSOUR), each song intensifies the emotional honesty that&rsquo;s always imbued her work, leading The New York Times to hail her as &ldquo;a songwriter of rather astonishing purity.&rdquo;<br />
<br />
Praised as an &ldquo;instant classic&rdquo; by Rolling Stone, GUTS debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, coinciding with lead single &ldquo;vampire&rdquo; returning to the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 and Rodrigo&rsquo;s No. 1 ranking on the Artist 100, thereby giving her a chart triple. Rodrigo is the first female artist in nearly a decade to debut her first two albums atop the Billboard 200 and the youngest artist in Hot 100 history to debut three hits at No. 1 (&ldquo;vampire&rdquo; and SOUR&rsquo;s &ldquo;drivers license&rdquo; and &ldquo;good 4 u&rdquo;). GUTS&rsquo; remaining 11 tracks charted in the top 40 of the Hot 100. GUTS topped the album charts in over 13 countries, including the UK.<br />
<br />
The album, which appeared on more than 30 Best of 2023 lists, including The New York Times, Rolling Stone, NPR and Pitchfork, received GRAMMY&reg; nominations for Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album while &ldquo;vampire&rdquo; received three nods and &ldquo;ballad of a homeschooled girl&rdquo; was nominated for Best Rock Song. Before the year ended, Rodrigo achieved another career milestone with the release of her first contribution to a film soundtrack: &ldquo;Can&rsquo;t Catch Me Now&rdquo; from The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds &amp; Snakes (Music From &amp; Inspired By). &nbsp;The song won a 2023 Hollywood Music In Media Award for SciFi/Fantasy Film, a 2024 SCL Award for &ldquo;Outstanding Original Song For A Dramatic Or Documentary Visual Media Production&rdquo; and was shortlisted for the 2024 Oscars.<br />
<br />
Shortly after the GUTS tour launched, Olivia released GUTS (spilled) &ndash; the deluxe edition of her sophomore album, which contains five additional songs, including &ldquo;obsessed,&rdquo; a highlight of her live show and a brand-new song &ldquo;so american,&rdquo; recorded following the release of GUTS.
