Alessia Cara hit the San Diego Jacob Symphony Hall October 18th, in as raw of an outfit that could possibly be worn on a stage. With no introduction needed, the "Here" singer started the show with an incredible intro filled with lights and effects, which transitioned into "I'm Yours".
Alessia displayed the perfect vocals that are often related to a perfect mixture of Rihanna and Sia. With a music style of her own, Alessia differs from the rest of the industry. At the young age of 20 years old, she is selling out her shows at nearly a 2K capacity each night.
Alessia broke into ballads which brought the audience to complete silence. Nobody was focusing on singing with her, people simply sat there and took the time to admire how beautifully she was hitting each note one by one. When it came time to sing "Stars" where Alessia commonly has special guests join the stage with her, this shows special guest was "Lost Boy" singer Ruth B. They performed a wonderfully done duet, and showed perfect harmonizes.
The moment of the night everybody had been waiting for had finally come up. Alessia began singing her Multi-Platinum single "Here" in which the whole crowd finally stood up and sang along in synchronization. Throughout the night, Alessia showed the audience why she deserved to be standing on that stage. She spoke very inspirationally about self acceptance and loving yourself to the best of your ability.
After the show came to an end, unlike many artists, Alessia came out to the back exit to meet a line of around 20 waiting for her. She individually took a picture with each person and signed whatever they wanted her to sign. She was kind and caring and was in no rush to get into her tour bus.
Considering Alessia just began her up and rising career in 2015, we can expect to see a lot more coming from her. She is not to be compared to other artists because she is one in a kind, and when you are one in a kind, you can often thrive beyond those who have no individuality.
