Gracie Abrams Performs Rousing Rendition of ‘Blowing Smoke’ During Austin City Limits TV Debut — Watch! (Exclusive)

Gracie Abrams has had a remarkable year.

From opening for Taylor Swift on the Eras Tour to releasing her 2024 sophomore album The Secret of Us and hitting the road in support of it, the rising pop star, 25, has been everywhere.

Now, Abrams is “deeply grateful” to be making her debut on Austin City Limits TV on Saturday, Oct. 12, where she’ll deliver an intimate performance of six of her tracks.

PEOPLE is premiering two of the tracks Abrams will be performing from The Secret of Us —
“I Love You, I’m Sorry” and “Blowing Smoke.”

Before kicking off a sweeping rendition of her single “I Love You, I’m Sorry,” Abrams tells the crowd “how deeply grateful” she is to be in room with her fans.

“Thank you so much for coming out,” she tells the audience. “It literally means the entire world. I’ve missed you so much.”

Added Abrams: “I don’t even know what to say. It’s just special. I’m just really grateful for the show, so thank you.”

With “Blowing Smoke,” the “Mess It Up” artist launches into a fiery version of the track that sees the audience singing along with her in unison.

While Abrams also performs her single “Risk” from her most recent album, she also revisits the 2020 EP that kicked off her career with the ballad “Friend.”

The “Close to You” hitmaker will share her Austin City Limits TV episode with Maggie Rogers who will make her second appearance in the series.

Austin City Limits is celebrating its milestone Season 50 this year and the new season premiered on Sept. 28 with Kacey Musgraves.

Abrams’ episode of Austin City Limits TV will premiere Saturday, Oct. 12 at 8 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. CT. Full episodes are available to stream online immediately after the initial broadcast airs here.
