Olivia Rodrigo Surprises at Open Mic, Praises Industry Monk

0:00On April 27, Olivia Rodrigo shocked the crowd at Pete's candy store in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, last night by jumping on stage for their Sunday open. 2. Mike, she debuted in acoustic take on her new single Drop Dead, blending in like any other performer on the lineup. Industry monk, a local musician from Houston, who just moved to Brooklyn a year ago, went up 7 with his track, stayed. He was packing up his guitar when she started, but caught the cure reference in her lyrics and did a double take, realizing it was her voice. The room felt a bit busier than usual, with a longer sign of sheet, but no one clocked her until she was mid-song. Everyone went quiet out of respect, letting her crush it and paying props to the Gen Z angst queen. Monk draws from Frank Ocean and Radiohead vibes, dropped his album Monk last October, and sees his career as a slow burn. He's a big fan of Rodrigo's work, like pretty isn't pretty, from Guts and Diggs producer Dan Negro too. Rodrigo's third album, you seem pretty sad for a girl.
