For four nights at Madison Square Garden, Olivia Rodrigo unlocked the inner pop-rock rage queen in her tens of thousands-deep audience. Those shows brought the first North American leg of the Guts world tour to a close as the singer and songwriter gets ready to head over to Europe for nearly two full months of performances. In a recent Instagram post, Rodrigo reflected on the milestone accomplishment with a carousel celebrating special guests who joined her both on the stage and in the audience.

“4 nights at madison square garden!!! whatta way to end this leg of the tour. immensely grateful for all the wonderful people who work so hard on making this show happen every night and thankful for everyone who has bought tickets and jumped and screamed and sang along with me,” Rodrigo wrote.

The burst of photos includes snapshots of the singer backstage with David Byrne and her best friend Conan Gray, whose Guts tour fit consisted of a tank top that read: “U Call Urself A Livie? Name 10 Olivia Rodriguez Songs…” It also highlighted her friend and former co-star Madison Hu’s Louvre-ready portrait of Rodrigo, for which she attempted to draw the singer from memory.

Rodrigo’s MSG media dump also featured a snippet of her performance with special guest Jewel, who joined her on her final night at the venue. Massive thanks to the magical songwriting genius @jewel for singing one of my all time favs with me the other night,” she wrote in the caption. “See u soon europe!!!!”

The European leg of the Guts tour begins on April 30 in Dublin, Ireland. But Rodrigo isn’t completely done with North America just yet. She’ll return in July for a second stateside stretch of shows, including stops in Philadelphia, Seattle, Vancouver, and more, before wrapping with four shows at Los Angeles’ Kia Forum.
