See Taylor Swift and Gracie Abrams Perform ‘Us’ Together in Toronto
Singers celebrate collaboration’s Grammy nomination for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance at latest Eras Tour gig
Taylor Swift brought out Gracie Abrams to perform their now Grammy-nominated collaboration “Us” Saturday at the Eras Tour concert in Toronto.
Abrams first served as the opening act for about a dozen of Eras Tour shows in 2023, and returned to the role for the entirety of the Eras Tour’s latest leg, including the trek-ending Canada dates.
During the Surprise Songs portion of the show, Swift reflected on the “long tour.” “A lot of life can happen in the phase of that tour, a lot of art can happen over the course of that tour, and I think you’ll remember the genius, brilliant young lady you saw earlier tonight,” Swift told the Rogers Centre crowd.
“So, story time, Gracie was opening up for me like a year ago on the Eras Tour and we had so many fun memories during that tour, one of which was we were celebrating her getting nominated for Best New Artist at the Grammys, we went out, we had like eleventy-hundred cosmos.”
Fast-forward to last week, when “Us” — the track that pair co-wrote for Abrams’ The Secret of Us — was nominated for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance at the 2025 Grammys. Swift said that, when the nominations were announced, she and Abrams were on the phone together, and the two were “feral screeching” about the nod.
Abrams then appeared onstage and the singers performed the track together live for only the second time, and the first time in North America; they previously played the track live this past June in London. Like that performance, “Us” was mashed up with Swift’s own “Out of the Woods.”
The Eras Tour continues next week — with Abrams in tow — for three more shows in Toronto before concluding (for good) with three gigs in Vancouver from December 6 to 8.
