Olivia O'Brien Presents: The PIXIE Tour
About This Event
Olivia O’Brien brings song-first pop with a rock edge to Irving Plaza, performing material shaped by her early feature on Gnash’s 2016 hit “I Hate U, I Love U,” the album Was It Even Real? and releases on her independent imprint Girlhood Records. Opening set by New York–based songwriter Maya Donovan highlights a lean, arrangement-forward approach she has tested on the club circuit and at Pianos; both artists favor direct vocals and plainspoken songwriting over spectacle.
About The PIXIE Tour
“The PIXIE Tour” brings a Rock/Pop bill to Irving Plaza, one of Manhattan’s long-running rooms where emerging and mid-career acts often test new material in front of a close crowd. Featured performer Olivia O’Brien anchors the night with songwriting that sits between diary detail and radio structure. In a city that treats touring stops as a kind of rotating repertory, this engagement reads as a snapshot of where the music is now. The scale of the venue makes the set feel less like spectacle and more like report.
