the 23-year-old rising singer-songwriter, is that she’s a Swiftie. “I’m not going to be okay,” says Abrams of joining’s highly anticipated Eras Tour for 30 nights as one of her opening acts. “I’m attending every minute of every night,” she says, grinning ear to ear. “I’m trying to learn from her in every way I can, and I’m trying to fucking hear all my favorite songs.
Over Zoom, Abrams is in her element in her bedroom at home in Los Angeles, wearing an oversized red Nike sweatshirt, with fairy lights twinkling in the background. Our exchange feels like calling a girlfriend; you might laugh, you might cry, or you just might do both, and Abrams has a song for any of these occasions. A self-proclaimed sensitive kid “with a very tough exterior,” she has been in touch with her emotions for as long as she can remember, starting to write at a young age.
Eventually, that practice evolved into songwriting. “I happened to also fall in love with the writing process,” says Abrams. “It makes me want to be uncomfortable more often. It makes me want to feel everything to then be able to write about it all.” Abrams jokes that using music as a way to cope is “like this horrible trick I’m playing on myself, immortalizing my feelings.”
In 2019, after a brief stint at Barnard College in New York, Abrams signed to Interscope Records. The following year, her first EP,amassed a following and cemented her as a figure in the sad-girl-pop club. Currently, her song “I Miss You, I’m Sorry,” off that first EP, is still her most streamed song on Spotify, having been played more than 133 million times and counting.
