Olivia Rodrigo is carrying the music industry by storm this year! Not only did she release her first single “drivers license” early in the year that became a #1 hit worldwide, but she also released a debut album that is now the second most streamed album in a week by a female artist – only after Ariana Grande’s Thank U, Next.
The only downside to her album Sour for her fans is that it only 11 songs and they will probably have to wait a while before she comes back with next set of songs. In the meantime, you can enjoy these 5 artists that have similar sounds to the new pop star:
1. Lorde – Olivia Rodrigo and the New Zealand singer have very similar tones. Olivia even said she was a big inspiration for her. Plus, they sing about their view of the world in a teenage lens.
2. Gracie Abrahms – Olivia and Gracie have very similar vocal ranges and in the way they sing. Olivia has also listed Gracie as one of her main inspirations and you can definitely tell. Out of all the artists, Gracie’s material sounds the most like the “drivers license” singer.
3. Billie Eilish – Olivia is compared to Billie as they are both very young up-and-coming artists that have the potential to become icons. Plus, they both can speak from an adolescent point of view on life.
4. Paramore – Some of Olivia’s songs have a punk rock vibe to it which the band is famous for. If your favourite tracks on Sour was “brutal” or “good 4 u,” you definitely should check out Paramore.
5. Taylor Swift – If you watched even one of Olivia Rodrigo’s interviews, you may have heard her bring up Taylor Swift as the Sour singer is a HUGE swiftie. You can definitely tell Taylor’s influence through Olivia’s storytelling lyrics. If you loved “1 step forward, 3 steps back,” you should check out “New Year’s Day” and if you loved “deja vu,” then “Cruel Summer” is the song for you!
