Grace Ives is having a year. The Brooklyn-raised vocalist, songwriter and producer has just been announced as support for Olivia Rodrigo’s 2027 arena tour across the U.K. and Europe, joining for dates in London, Amsterdam, Stockholm and Munich next spring. For an artist whose critically acclaimed album ‘Girlfriend’ has already landed on Pitchfork’s best music of 2026 list, the booking feels exactly right.
The announcement lands alongside the release of the official music video for “Fire 2,” a fan-favourite track from ‘Girlfriend.’ Directed by Grace’s longtime creative and romantic partner Samuel Metzger, the video is out now and matches the album’s warm, personal energy with visuals that feel genuinely intimate rather than calculated.
‘Girlfriend’ is the record that made all of this possible. Released this spring via True Panther/Capitol Records, it earned Pitchfork’s Best New Music designation and drew widespread praise from The New York Times, NPR, Stereogum, and NYLON. Produced alongside Grammy Award-winner Ariel Rechtshaid (Charli xcx, Vampire Weekend, Kelela) and John DeBold (HAIM, Dora Jar, Dijon), with mixing by Dave Fridmann (Flaming Lips, MGMT), the album documents a life in flux, created during a period of profound personal change after a nearly three-year hiatus from music.
The result is Grace’s most expansive and sonically ambitious work to date. Where her 2022 breakout ‘Janky Star’ established her as one of indie pop’s sharpest and most relatable voices, ‘Girlfriend’ builds on that foundation with something more assured and more wide-open. NYLON called ‘Janky Star’ “the year’s most relatable pop record.” ‘Girlfriend’ takes that instinct and scales it up without losing any of the intimacy that made people fall for Grace in the first place.
She’s currently in the middle of a headline tour across North America and Europe running through June 2026, with ten dates already sold out. The run kicked off April 17 in Philadelphia and winds through Los Angeles, Brooklyn, Paris, London and beyond before wrapping at London’s Village Underground on June 16. ‘Girlfriend’ is available on signed Girlfriend Pink vinyl, CD, and now on 7″ vinyl as well.
