Gracie Abrams performed two songs from her latest studio album, Daughter from Hell, and its forthcoming deluxe edition during her Saturday night appearance on SNL.
The singer-songwriter, who debuted on the show in 2024 in support of that year’s The Secret of Us, opened with the album’s first track, “Hit the Wall.”
The 27-year-old said the album, which debuted atop the Billboard 200, reflects the “in-between quality” of her maturation.
“The theme to me is trying to paint an accurate picture of all of these different versions of who you are in this decade when you are sort of one foot in a past life and one foot in the future,” Abrams, Rolling Stone’s September cover artist, said.
Abrams also described the emotional “metabolizing” of her songwriting: “I was really careful to try to have a better understanding of being both the protagonist and the antagonist in each song.”
Abrams announced this week a deluxe version of Daughter from Hell. Set for a November 20 release, it will include five new songs, including “Here You Come, There You Go,” which she also performed Saturday.
Abrams is about to head out on the Look at My Life Tour, which begins in Denver on December 2 and concludes in late May in Barcelona, with multiple dates across all 27 cities she is visiting. Supporting acts include Rachel Chinouriri, Del Water Gap, Jensen McRae, and The Japanese House.
