Three-time GRAMMY winner Olivia Rodrigo announced that her award-winning, record-breaking triple Platinum debut album Sour will be available in three new vinyl colors on May 27.
Rodrigo is celebrating the first anniversary of the album, which has sold more than 11.7M equivalent album units globally since its release on May 21, 2021. It won a GRAMMY for Best Pop Vocal Album, Top Billboard 200 Album at the Billboard Music Awards and took home Album Of The Year honors at the People’s Choice Awards and Apple Music Awards.
Fans can pre-order Light Blue vinyl from Amazon, Fruit Punch vinyl from Urban Outfitters and Baby Pink vinyl from independent music retailers. Additionally, Target will offer the Sour CD with an updated zine/journal and tattoo sheet. A special box set with CD, updated zine/journal, and t-shirt will be available exclusively at Rodrigo’s online store.
Rodrigo will wrap up the North American leg of her first-ever world tour with a two-night stand at Los Angeles’ Greek Theatre (May 24 & 25) and a May 27 show at Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco. She’ll kick off the EU/UK leg of the sold-out run on June 11 in Hamburg, Germany. Special guests Holly Humberstone (May 21-25) and Baby Queen (June 11 – July 7) will support.
Praising the opening night show in Portland, Oregon, The New York Times observed, “she showed just how colossal her intimate songs could be…[and] was just as convincing when she let loose, like on the rollicking upturned middle finger ‘Good 4 U.’” Rolling Stone said, “Rodrigo kept the energy high throughout the set…[‘Enough for You’ and] ‘1 Step Forward, 3 Steps Back’ were mashed up seamlessly for a very moving medley.” Variety marveled, “Olivia Rodrigo Wows the Sour Faithful with Triumphant Radio City Show.” The Detroit Free Press noted, “It was the sort of show where lifetime memories get made…There was a sizzling, organic charm to the whole affair.”
