This weekend, Taylor Swift's much-anticipated "The Eras" tour kicks off in Edinburgh, Scotland — the first UK dates since its launch in March 2023. In her opening show in Las Vegas, Swift praised Del Rey's recently released album "Did You Know There's a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd," saying, "Guys, it's just so good." She then performed their unexpected collaboration "Snow on the Beach," featured on Swift's "Midnights" album (2022) as a surprise.
"Snow on the Beach" was made by the duo as a guest feature for Swift's album "Midnights." On stage, Swift confessed to being a die-hard Del Rey fan. "I'm absolutely obsessed with her, and she was so gracious to create the song 'Snow on the Beach' for 'Midnights' because she's such a kind queen," Swift shared during the early days of the tour.
Both performers have worked closely with the longtime producer Jack Antonoff (40), who has collaborated with Del Rey on her latest three albums and has been a close collaborator with Swift since her "1989" album (2014).
