Olivia Rodrigo Ditches Purple for a Bold New Wave on So in Love
TL;DR Summary
Olivia Rodrigo’s third album you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love shifts away from purple, embracing a cooler, synth-driven new-wave/post-punk palette crafted with Dan Nigro. The collection blends intimate confessional writing with 80s-inspired textures (Cure, New Order, Depeche Mode) and signals a deliberate evolution beyond her Sour era while keeping her distinctive storytelling voice.
