Gracie Abrams Thanks Swifties After Final Toronto Eras Tour Shows With Taylor Swift: ‘So Loud and So Generous and So Kind’
The singer has been the opening act on the final group of North American Eras gigs, which will officially end with a Dec. 6-8 run in Vancouver.
Gracie Abrams performs onstage during "Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour" at Rogers Centre on November 14, 2024 in Toronto, Ontario.
Gracie Abrams has had the adventure of a lifetime opening for Taylor Swift on the singer’s Eras Tour over the past year. But with the end of the global outing just two weeks away, Abrams took some time on Sunday (Nov. 24) to reflect on the latest chapter in her wild ride.
“Torontoooooo ❤️💔 I will never ever forget those six shows. You were so loud and so generous and so kind,” Abrams wrote alongside a series of snaps from the six-show run at the Rogers Centre in Toronto that kicked off on Nov. 14 and wound down on Saturday (Nov. 23). “Thank you for hanging out with us while we waited for @taylorswift who brought me to tears every single night the past two weekends……Cassandra x mad woman x I did something bad forever good night.” The latter was a reference to the rapturously received mash-up Swift performed during night five in Toronto, which included the only The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology song (“Cassandra”) that Swift had not performed yet live.
The pictures in the roll included Abrams waving to the crowd from stage and singing a duet with Swift on a surprise mash-up of Taylor’s 1989 tune “Out of the Woods” and their joint track “Us” from Abrams’ The Secret of Us album during the Nov. 16 show. Elsewhere in the roll, Abrams posed in front of a mural of a maple leaf and hugged Swift on stage amid other shots from the Toronto shows.
Abrams has spent the past year, on-an-off, on the road with Swift on the history-making tour. She first took the stage in Arlington, TX in March 2023 at the beginning of the outing alongside Beabadoobee and Gracie, then jumped on shows throughout the first run of North American dates through an August 8 show at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. She hopped back into the mix last month when Swift returned from Europe for a trio of gigs at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, followed by shows in New Orleans and Indianapolis in the run-up to the final Canadian concerts.
