Olivia Rodrigo picks Scots singer for support act at huge London show

The chart-topping star has followed Katie Gregson-MacLeod on social media for the last couple of years and contacted the singer's agent to ask if she would like to play at her her British Summer Time show in London. A Scots singer has been chosen by Olivia Rodrigo as a special guest at her massive Hyde Park show next month. The chart-topping star has followed Katie Gregson-MacLeod on social media for the last couple of years and contacted the singer's agent to ask if she would like to play at her her British Summer Time show in London. Katie, 23, told the Record: 'It's a real honour and pretty surreal to be supporting Olivia for her BST Hyde Park show. ‌ 'I've followed Olivia's work since her astronomical breakout single and have admired her from afar for both her artistry and advocacy. ‌ 'To have received her support and to be selected amongst this powerhouse lineup made up of female and queer artists has been very affirming. 'I can't wait to take my little show to such a big stage.' Scots singer-songwriter Katie became an overnight global sensation after posting a 45-second clip of an unfinished song on social media in 2022 while working in a coffee shop part-time. The song called Complex went viral, with versions recorded by the likes of Cuban-American hitmaker Camila Cabello, country singer Madison Beer and Brit award-winner Tom Walker. Gregson, who was a history student at the time, went on to land a record deal thanks to the viral hit. ‌ Katie's manager Dougie Brown said: 'Olivia has followed Katie on social media for a while and an offer came through to Katie's agent to join the bill for her British Summer Time show so obviously couldn't say no.' As well as Katie, Rodrigo will be joined by special guests including BRIT Award winning band The Last Dinner Party and girl in red and a selection of newly announced stars; Flowerovlove, America's Got Talent quarter-finalists Between Friends, The Voice UK winner Ruti, BRIT Award rising star nominee Caity Baser, Katie Gregson-Macleod, Ruti, Florence Road, Aziya and Déyyes. Rodrigo, who shot to fame when her single Drivers License topped the charts around the world including the UK and US in 2021, will headline American Express presents BST Hyde Park on Friday, June 27 2025. Other BST Hyde Park's headliners for 2025 are Zach Bryan (June 28 +29) Noah Kahan (July 4), Sabrina Carpenter (July 5+6), Neil young and the chrome hearts (July 11), Stevie Wonder (July 12) and Jeff Lynne's ELO (July 13). Expect more incredible announcements soon for the 2025 edition of one of the UK's most anticipated summer event.

Aziya has drip-fed a slew of singles throughout 2025, the most recent being the grungy 'Diamonds,' which dropped in April.

Over the past few years, the likes of Sam Fender (Bob Dylan and Neil Young, 2019), The Last Dinner Party (The Rolling Stones, 2022) and Elmiene (SZA, 2024) have performed at the festival before going on to break into the mainstream.
