Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift tours have quickly become the Marvel blockbusters of the live circuit, stuffed with famous cameos, era-specific multiverses and very online intertextual readings. At the heart of the maelstrom, however, is modern pop’s biggest megastar, deftly flitting between delicate folk balladry, heavyweight pop and empowered country, all tied up with a lyrical precision that can make a stadium feel like a theatre. Catch her – if you can – in the UK next year. Michael Cragg
