The singer took the late-night show stage, illuminated with a brilliant red backdrop, and offered an impassioned take on the song.
Daughter From Hell, out today, was produced by the National’s Aaron Dessner, who also produced Abrams’ first two albums Good Riddance and The Secret of Us. Since the singer-songwriter unveiled the album in May, she’s released two upbeat singles about crashing out, “Hit the Wall,” and “Look at My Life,” the latter of which became an instant fan-favorite. Her performance on The Tonight Show marks the TV debut of “Minibar.”
Abrams told Fallon that the album’s is a reflection of how she was a child. “I was brutal,” she admitted. “I wrote the title track of the album, that song was the last one that I wrote for the album. It is a decades overdue apology to my mom, basically. Sorry, Mom. I don’t think I’m a wildly unique case. I just think the inevitable friction of being a child and growing into yourself and being a defiant person, it can be turbulent. And it was. So this is a thank you note to her.”
The musician discussed opening for Taylor Swift and her upcoming return to tour. She also recounted spotting Paul McCartney in the crowd during Glastonbury.
