Rolling Stone She Managed Concert Tours. Now, Covid Vaccines
Without tours, Pale Waves and Zara Larsson’s crew leader works at a mass vaccination center in Scotland: “It’s the camaraderie, being part of a team, working toward the same goal I have that again”

Pale Waves’ tour bus crashed about a year ago, overturning and sliding off a road into the snow between Stockholm and Berlin while the band was on their way to a gig supporting Halsey in an arena run. Drummer Ciara Doran said everyone on board thought they were going to die. One of the people injured from the incident was Caroline Smith, the British rock band’s tour manager, who planned to take a week off to recover but that week stretched into an entire year, as the pandemic locked down the live music industry.
