Demi Lovato brings a career-spanning set — and a recalibrated pop persona — to San Francisco with her “It’s Not That Deep” tour.
The former Disney Channel star, who has spent more than a decade moving between glossy pop, rock and R&B, arrives at Chase Center with a setlist that pulls from across her catalog, pairing newer material with hits including 2017’s “Sorry Not Sorry” and the 2011 ballad “Skyscraper.”
Recent stops have featured guest appearances from early 2000s peers, including the Jonas Brothers and “Leave (Get Out)” singer JoJo, underscoring the tour’s throwback appeal without leaning fully into nostalgia.
The tour also marks a shift in tone. Lovato has leaned into a more feminine, pop-punk-inflected sound in recent work, while adopting a lighter, more self-aware public persona. It is an approach that acknowledges her past without being defined by it, including a willingness to poke fun at the viral memes that have followed her career.
