Taylor Swift Eras Tour in Edinburgh review: Singer is at the peak of her powers as she kicks off her first UK show in spectacular style, writes ADRIAN THRILLS


The singer brought her record-breaking Eras tour to Britain in spectacular fashion on Friday

Welcomed by a multi-coloured sea of sequins, stetsons, glittery face-paint and cowgirl boots, Taylor Swift brought her record-breaking Eras tour to Britain in spectacular fashion on Friday. Performed with a six-piece band, four backing singers, 16 dancers, three stages and an array of digital effects, it felt like a cross between a futuristic rock concert and a Broadway blockbuster. Swift's two most recent LPs, Midnights and The Tortured Poets Department, featured late on, but even a setlist as tightly-planned as this one allowed some room for spontaneity, and an 'unplugged' section towards the end of the show saw Taylor solo on guitar and then piano sing spur of the moment songs, including 'Tis The Damn Season and Would've, Could've, Should've.
