It is with immense excitement that we announce that Alessia Cara is coming to New Zealand to play a one-off showcase (TBA) and promote her debut single Here. Set to be the breakout star of 2015, the 19 year-old Ontario native has released the introverted pop anthem of the year. Upon release of Here, the single shot to #1 on Hype Machine and the Global Spotify Viral Chart, registering over 10 million streams in under 2 months and was received with admiration from music press such as New York Times, Pitchfork, MTV, Complex, Coup De Main and Fadar to name a few.

Due to rapturous demand, Alessia Cara recently ventured to Europe on a promotional tour for her new single and won press and fans over with her astounding talent and sincere charm. The highlight being when she stopped in at BBC Radio 1 to perform a flawless cover of Taylor Swift’s Bad Blood including the Kendrick Lamar verses, which received a glowing acknowledgement from Taylor herself.

“Ones To Watch” gets tossed around a lot in this industry – with so many new ways to consume songs and so many new songs to consume, an emerging artist really needs to deliver music that cuts through the ether. With Alessia Cara, we have no concerns here. Expect great things from this emerging star as she readies more music for future release.
