Sony and Olivia Rodrigo have jointly unveiled the LinkBuds S x Olivia Rodrigo, a limited-edition collaboration that brings the world of music and technology together. These premium wireless headphones, derived from Sony’s LinkBuds S noise-cancelling earbuds, feature custom EQ settings crafted by Olivia Rodrigo and her producer, Daniel Nigro, designed to optimize the listening experience for her hit albums, “GUTS” and “SOUR,” across various music streaming platforms.
Notably, the LinkBuds S x Olivia Rodrigo are adorned with a distinct violet marble pattern designed by Olivia herself, all while incorporating environmentally conscious materials into their construction.
In a statement, Olivia Rodrigo expressed her excitement about this unique collaboration, saying, “I’m thrilled to have had the opportunity to design a limited edition LinkBuds S in this beautiful violet colour. The sound quality is extraordinary, and I can’t wait for my fans to experience ‘GUTS’ in this unique way.”
Hiroshi Nakamura, the Head of the Personal Entertainment Business Unit at Sony Corporation, emphasized the intention to create a listening experience that truly embodies Olivia Rodrigo’s artistic vision and distinctive sound. “As a company that prioritizes the artist’s vision above all else, Sony seeks to connect artists with their fans through innovative means,” Nakamura noted. “Olivia’s authenticity and dedication to her fanbase make her a perfect match for this incredible partnership with LinkBuds S.”
