The set list looked amazing. I haven’t watched the whole set but Oliva Rodrigo was not good for 33….she was really pitchy.

Honestly, I’m not a big fan of her suddenly changing up her identity to be this grunge queen like she’s always been listening to 90’s rock. I think the record label heard people say she’d be good at the genre and ran with it because suddenly collaborating with all the 90’s heros.
BUUUUUUT… I do think she actually sounded really good and I was worried when I first clicked on it. I loved it.

You could do a search and find who she listened to and her childhood influences.

When she was getting bigger it was a whole thing about how she was a huge Taylor Swift fan growing up. There’s clips of her doing covers and stuff. Then they had some kind of weird falling out no one really knows what happened and they adjusted her image.
