Fancy hitmaker has revealed that it was “a tough decision” to push back her Great Escape tour.
The 24-year-old Australian singer cancelled dates on her US tour citing "production delays" as the reason, insisting that the rescheduled dates will be worth the wait.
Speaking to AMP Radio, she said: “It is my first arena tour, so it’s a big undertaking and I’m doing a lot of the creative direction, which I do for everything… So it’s tough when it’s your first time working on an arena situation.”
She added: “When you’re building a stage and things like that, you do it about six months in advance. My tour would have been April; we have not started building – that is not six months, that is very tight.
“So to get this stage done in time, I would be making a lot of sacrifices and cuts and changes and compromises would have had to be made to get this thing done in time.”
When asked what fans can expect from the tour, which will now begin on September 18 in San Diego, she said: “I don’t want to have an average tour with a normal stage and this kind of thing. I want people to come and really feel they got their money’s worth… and they want to come back and tell their friends about it. So that’s the risk that I took and I hope people can still come.”
