A GUTS POP-UP (UPDATE)

UPDATE: Olivia Rodrigo surprised fans at an exclusive preview of Spotify x American Express Present: GUTS Gallery Pop-Up Experience on Thursday night (9/7), just hours before releasing her sophomore album, GUTS (Geffen).

The event gave O-Rod's most-dedicated fans on Spotify a first look at the pop-up and a chance to listen to GUTS ahead of its release.

Following the listening session, she sat down with Eva Chen for a Q&A, during which she talked about her love of chicken tacos, her definition of success and her advice for fans. All we heard was "tacos."


With the arrival of Olivia Rodrigo’s GUTS roughly a week away, Spotify and American Express have teamed up for an event for O-Rod die-hards.

The Spotify x American Express Present: GUTS Gallery Pop-Up Experience, taking place 9/8-10 in New York, will provide Olivia enthusiasts a chance at exclusive merch produced in partnership with Bravado, including T-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts, bumper stickers, dad hats, beanies and tote bags.

Visitors will receive a complimentary tote bag and can win a variety of prizes at onsite “Amex More” vending machines. The Geffen star’s top Spotify listeners and Amex card members will be invited to enjoy a daily hour of exclusive early access.

GUTS, the follow-up to Rodrigo's triple-platinum 2021 debut, SOUR, is due 9/8.
