GRACIE Abrams’ show descended into chaos at Mad Cool Festival in Spain after a major technical glitch left her without sound.
The American star’s microphone stopped working while she was on-stage – with Gracie, 25, forced to finish the last 20 minutes of her set with an acoustic guitar.

Though the glitch made it tough for fans to hear her over the festival noise, Gracie powered through with professionalism.
An onlooker told The Sun: “Gracie was trying to sing loudly but without a microphone you couldn’t hear a thing.
“The timing was bad, but she definitely gave it her best and didn’t give up.”
Mad Cool Festival, one of Europe’s biggest music events, runs from July 10 to July 13 in Madrid this year.
On the bill are heavyweights Foo Fighters, Arctic Monkeys, and The Killers, alongside breakout stars Wet Leg and MUNA.
Gracie, famed for tracks I Love You, I’m Sorry and That’s So True, has also been making headlines for her relationship with Paul Mescal.
The Sun told last month how she finished her recent Glastonbury set on The Other Stage – then snogged and partied with her boyfriend until 3am.
Gracie and Paul were joined by his singer sister Nell, as well as his Normal People co-star Daisy Edgar-Jones and her photographer boyfriend Ben Seed, at The Glade stage to take in a set by US DJ Seth Troxler.
An onlooker on Friday night said: “Paul and Gracie were all over each other and couldn’t resist a cheeky snog while their pals used the loos.
“Gracie was still full of energy despite playing on The Other Stage just hours before.
“The group were clearly still on a high from her magical performance as the sun set over Worthy Farm.”
Paul earned boyfriend points as he got in among the crowd to watch Gracie’s set – alongside his fellow Irish actor Andrew Scott, Daisy and Nell.
At one point, Daisy was up on Ben’s shoulders showing her appreciation for the music.
A source said: “Paul is so proud of Gracie and loved being with their friends as she saw her dream of performing at Glasto come true.”
Gracie sang hits including That’s So True, Close To You and I Love You, I’m Sorry.
But although Paul is now a Hollywood actor and his girlfriend a chart-topping artist, he was overheard telling pals he is a normal person and was camping in just a regular tent like the rest of us.
