A breakout star thanks to her smash single 'Here', Alessia Cara has taken the pop music world by storm with her incredible singing voice and fully-formed musical talent. In an era in which most pop acts drown their own sounds in vocal effects and post processing tricks, Alessia Cara feels perfectly at home in her own voice, which shows a confidence and swagger well beyond her years.

Schedule

Alessia Cara loves the energy of live shows, and as such, makes a point of maintaining a packed tour schedule. She'll be playing this year at Barfly Camden in London and the Bowery Ballroom in New York.

Trivia

Alessia Cara has often spoken about how much she would have loved to collaborate with Michael Jackson, but she is also a huge fan of Frank Sinatra. The leader of the Rat Pack, ol' Blue Eyes has been an influence on Alessia Cara since she was a child, which is evident in her smooth vocal delivery.

Cara comes from a first-generation Italian family and can speak fluent Italian. What's more, her full name is actually Alessia Caracciolo. She was so steeped in the Italian language that she couldn't speak English without an Italian accent until she was in kindergarten.

Artist

Thanks to the worldwide reach of YouTube, music fans all over the world have been exposed to the prodigious musical talents of Brampton, Ontario's Alessia Cara. The singer-songwriter got her start as a cover artist -- and music lovers couldn't help but notice the talent on display, not only in her silky smooth voice, but also her skillful guitar playing. Thanks to her viral hit track 'Here', which has earned over five million views on YouTube views, Alessia Cara has become one of the hottest rising stars in pop music. Appearances on The Tonight Show and Twitter shoutouts from Taylor Swift have proven that the music world can't wait to see what the young Canadian singer is going to do next.

Breakthrough

In the modern age of music, all it takes is one viral hit for someone to be an overnight success. After gaining a dedicated following on her YouTube channel, Alessia Cara released "Here" and became the talk of the pop music industry. Musical outlets such as SPIN Magazine, Complex and The Fader gave the single critical praise as well as heavy promotion. The catchy song eventually found the ears of Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon, who demanded to his producers that she be booked on his show. A BBC Radio1 performance of Taylor Swift's 'Bad Blood' earned Cara perhaps the highest praise a modern artist can achieve in this day and age: a Twitter shoutout from the pop phenom herself.

Hit Albums

Alessia Cara has produced covers for a wide range of artists, from current pop sensations Beyoncé and Lana Del Rey, to Gnarls Barkley and Coldplay. Fans have flocked to her videos with each new release, causing the major labels to sit up and take notice. Def Jam Records, an influential force in the pop music scene, signed the multi-talented singer to an album deal, with her debut EP Four Pink Walls fittingly receiving a digital release on all major music outlets. The highly anticipated album features Cara's breakout hit 'Here', which peaked at #10 on the Billboard R&B charts.

Show Experience

Few things in music are as genuine as a singer-songwriter taking the stage with just a guitar and a mic. Alessia Cara isn't afraid to channel her influences and use them to strengthen her live performances, while also adding her own unique blend of smooth R&B soul to the proceedings. This authenticity results in fans clamouring for Alessia Cara tickets.
