Freshman Katie Walsh was unable to get tickets to the tour but said, “I’m really excited to see all the videos people take of his performance, and I’m happy that his career is thriving.”
Conan Gray is an American singer-songwriter most known for his song “Heather” which went viral on TikTok in 2020. He started out on YouTube posting vlogs, covers and original songs.

This isn’t Gray’s first world tour. In 2018, he went on a tour called the Sunset Shows through Europe and North America performing songs from his first EP. A year later, in 2019 he went on the Comfort Crowd tour through North America, where he played songs from his EP and a few songs from “Kid Krow.” He was set to go on the Kid Krow tour in 2020, but it was canceled due to Covid-19. In 2022, he went on the Conan Gray World Tour through Europe and North America, where he played songs from “Sunset Season,” “Kid Krow,” and “Superache.” Later in 2022, he went on the Superache Tour through Asia, North and South America, and Australia.
