Olivia Rodrigo recently surprised a small crowd in Brooklyn by performing her new single "Drop Dead" at an unannounced open mic night. The event took place at Pete's Candy Store in Williamsburg, a venue known for emerging artists. This intimate performance offered a stripped-down version of the song, emphasizing its emotional core.
The surprise appearance is part of a series of low-key performances supporting her third studio album, "You Seem Pretty Sad For A Girl So In Love," scheduled for release on June 12 via Geffen. "Drop Dead" was previously debuted live during a surprise set at Coachella.
Earlier in the week, Rodrigo also played an invite-only show at The Echo in Los Angeles, where she was joined by Weyes Blood and unveiled additional new music. The song "Drop Dead" features a lyrical reference to The Cure's "Just Like Heaven," a nod to Rodrigo's past collaboration with Robert Smith at Glastonbury.
