Olivia O'Brien at Emo's

Hello, world, meet my newest obsession, Olivia O’Brien.

After gaining instant popularity with her hit, “I Hate U, I Love U” with Gnash, Olivia O’Brien continued her rise into total pop-superstardom. Like everyone else in the world, I loved her collaboration with Gnash, but her song “Tequilawine” was a staple in my playlists and frequently featured in my On Repeat list. Fully obsessed with that song, I knew I had to see her when she came to Austin.

From the jump, Olivia took control of the stage. She exudes a confidence that I could only wish to have. From flawless vocals, to dancing all around the room, you couldn't help but be in awe of her. It was completely evident that she loves her fans, she somehow made everyone there feel like her best friend and showed a vulnerability and honesty that just established that bond even more.

I cannot say enough good things about Olivia O’Brien, if you’re looking for a classic pop queen with a little bit of edge and a lot of humility, she’s your girl. I have no doubt we’ll continue to see her rise in popularity, you’ll definitely see me at more of her shows in the future.
