Gracie Abrams is mourning the end of Taylor Swift's Eras Tour: 'I'm feeling emotional'

Gracie Abrams can't get over the end of the Eras Tour either.

Abrams, who opened for Taylor Swift on 49 stops of her record-breaking Eras Tour, is revealing what she learned about pop superstardom in the process.

"I'm feeling emotional and grateful and in a state of shock that we don't, as a global community, get to experience that source of light anymore," Abrams said in an interview with Nylon published Tuesday.

Like other Swifties, she turned to Instagram to catch snippets of the shows she couldn't attend, she told the outlet.

After 149 stops and countless surprise songs, the Eras Tour wrapped earlier this month with a show in Vancouver, Canada, featuring Abrams.

"Everyone had been crying all day. It felt like the last day of school backstage," she told Nylon. "Everyone was walking around with their (Eras Tour) books, signing each other's books."

An up-and-coming star not too long ago, the 25-year-old singer is now a certified pop sensation − her breakup anthem "That's So True" hop, skip and jumping up the charts over the past month.

Her audience and Swift's are less of a Venn diagram and more of a circle − both women mine their own breakup angst to pen honest and narrative-driven heartbreak pop. Fans can slot themselves into the songs, which lean into the female perspective and don't shy away from the mess of feelings love can provoke.

Abrams also worked with Aaron Dressner, a musician and producer behind Swift's twin pandemic albums "Evermore" and "Folklore."

Abrams' meteoric rise is owed in part to the online popularity of her ear-worm songs and her spot in Swift's orbit. Joining the ranks of Shawn Mendes and Sabrina Carpenter, Abrams entered what could only be called the Taylor Swift School of Career Growth.

Swift, who often taps big-named artists for collaborations in her own work but rarely cameos on other albums, even lent her voice to "Us" a regret-tinged track on Abram's latest release "The Secret of Us."

As tour attendees got a taste of Abrams' new album featuring hits like "Risk" and "Close to You," her status transformed from small-indie artist to star songstress quickly.

"I was just soaking up every moment of her show, too," the singer told Nylon. "I've basically been studying it for a year and a half. Every time I've opened for her, I watch and learn. I learned from her every time we have a conversation about the weather, even."
