Despite only being nine years old Harris Hance from Bridge of Don is a lifelong Taylor Swift superfan.
So it is no surprise how excited he was when his mum, Suzanne, handed him tickets to her concert in Edinburgh for his birthday.
The youngster has been listening to Taylor Swift for “years and years”, according to his mum, listening via his Alexa.
This can be endearing and a nuisance to the Bridge of Don family, especially for his six-year-old brother Hadley, who might have given some side-eye but will eventually sing along.
Suzanne Hance, 38, was a fan of Taylor Swift, but her son’s enthusiasm for her has made her an even bigger fan, so she just had to spring for tickets to see her.
She said: “When it was announced that she was coming to Scotland, I thought Oh no, he’s going to ask me for tickets and they’re going to be like gold dust.
“He found out at school that she was coming and asked if we could get tickets, I told him we would try, but they might be very hard and expensive to get.”
The Bridge of Don duo will be travelling there and back in one day
She was one of the first people to get a code for tickets and while she failed on Friday, she was able to get two tickets for Saturday but kept it a secret from Harris.
The process was “very stressful” as her two boys kept coming into the room as she sat on the computer waiting in line.
She unintentionally got the VIP box, which had lanyards, a tote bag, and posters and pins inside.
Suzanne decided to surprise Harris with the tickets on his birthday in April and captured the sweet moment on video, which she posted to TikTok.
She said she was “emotional” seeing how grateful her son was and “knew she had brought him up right”.
The video ended on a funny note as his younger brother Hadley, questioned why she hadn’t got tickets for the concert in Scotland not realising Edinburgh is in Scotland.
She said: “When he was reading about the tickets, I don’t think it actually clicked in what was happening at first.
“You can hear him saying ‘Wow’ and it was really amazing to see him so happy.”
In just over a week, the mother/son duo are planning to travel down to the concert held at Murrayfield Stadium, with tens of thousands of other Swifties.
To look their best, Suzanne ordered Harris his costume, choosing the singer’s Midnights-era as the inspiration.
‘Amazing to see him so happy’ about seeing Taylor Swift
He will be decked out in royal blue denim and lilac, his favourite colour, complete with star-shaped glasses.
However, the duo ran into a bit of trouble after Harris injured himself during a football match earlier this week, but Suzanne says nothing will stop them from going to the concert.
They plan to drive down on the day and back up after the show, and no doubt the radio to be playing non-stop Taylor Swift for the entire journey, she says.
According to Suzanne, Harris loves old-school Taylor Swift and regularly listens to hits like Love Story, Bad Blood and 22.
When asked where his love for Taylor Swift comes from, she said: “I’ve always loved Taylor Swift, but I wouldn’t say I listen to her constantly, he discovered her on his own.
“He is quite a musical person and often has his Alexa playing all kinds of music in his bedroom.
“When a new song comes out, he just gets it so quickly, and he hears people speaking about her, and he is just drawn to her.”
Suzanne says Harris is “so excited” as this will be his first-ever concert and is counting down the days till June 8 when he gets to see his main music idol in person.
