How’s tour life so far? Are you enjoying it, or is it somehow a bit stressful too?
It’s been fucking amazing. It’s super exciting because I haven’t been to most of these places. The only show I did in Europe before was in London, so it’s my first time in all these cities and countries. It’s also very overwhelming because I’ve toured in the States multiple times and feel like I’ve finally got into a rhythm of touring. I thought it would be the same in Europe, and now I know it’s quite different with the customs, how we’re selling merch, etc. It’s been a real learning experience, and I’ve learned the role of the punches.
We’ve been stuck inside for such a long time. How is it to finally perform at all these places you’ve never been to before and meet all these new people?
It’s a trip for sure. When you’re opening for someone, you don’t expect anyone to know you because they’re waiting for the headliner. Every night has been very special, though, with people in the audience who know the words to my songs. I’m always like, “Wait, I’ve never met you, we’re from a different country, and you know the same words that I know.” It’s such a cool way to connect to people, and my favorite part of touring is definitely meeting people and hanging out to get to know everyone.
