Back at the end of September, Eilish shared the Happier Than Ever, The World Tour special livestream of her O2 Arena concert in London. The show streamed exclusively on Apple Music on Friday, September 30 at 10:00p EST / 7:00p PST. To promote the event, Billie Eilish took a car ride with host Zane Lowe to discuss her intricate relationship with touring and getting her first official arena tour perfectly right.
“This show, right now – it’s so right,” Eilish said. “It feels really cool to say it’s just me up there. I kind of, in a way, did it to almost prove to myself that I can do it.” While the 20-year-old singer and songwriter is joined on stage each night by her brother and close collaborator Finneas, as well as drummer Andrew Marshall, the core performance of the show rests on her shoulders alone–and she prefers it that way.
“My life show is one of the most important parts of me as an artist,” she explained. “And the idea that there are people that know me as an artist and don’t know me live freaks me out. I kind of wish I was known mainly for my show.”
