Eight Gigs: Ariana Grande

This pop star cut her teeth in the Broadway scene but was soon discovered after being included on the Victorious soundtrack in 2011. As luck would have it, she was quickly scooped up by Republic Records, and the momentum she’s gained since has been nothing short of groundbreaking. Although she is still supporting an album released in mid-2016, Ariana Grande’s current “Dangerous Woman” tour couldn’t have a more apropos moniker. The album spawned several singles to date and debuted at a whopping No. 2 on the Billboard chart. 500 David J Stern Walk, www.arianagrande.com.
