About:
Grammy Award Winning Canadian singer/songwriter and Def Jam Recordings artist Alessia Cara emerged onto the music scene in 2015 with her global anthem “Here.” A five-track EP, Four Pink Walls, soon followed before the release of the full-length certified platinum KNOW –IT-ALL. Alessia lent her voice to “How Far I’ll Go,” the official song for Disney’s animated film Moana, penned by Lin-Manuel Miranda. Her multi-platinum #1 hit single, “Scars to Your Beautiful,” is Cara’s gut-wrenching take on female identity, on body image and on deleterious behaviors in the name of beauty. “Stay” her #1 hit with Zedd has sold over 2 million copies and has been called the “Song of the Summer.” “1-800-273-8255,” her most recent #1 smash with Logic went platinum 5x, contributing to her 6 global smash hits and 8.5 billion streams worldwide. She was one of the most streamed new female artist of 2017.
On top of her 2018 Grammy win, she was also awarded with an MTV EMA for Best World Stage Performance following the release of her released her highly anticipated sophomore album THE PAINS OF GROWING.
Alessia spent much of 2019 touring the world alongside fellow Canadian, Shawn Mendes. Between playing sold out stadium shows, Cara flew her producer out on tour to write and recorded 6 new songs inspired by her experiences travelling the world with friends. This Summer EP was released on the final date of the tour, September 6th.
