Alex Porat at Bar Le Ritz in Montreal
On October 9th, 2025, the Toronto-based pop artist, Alex Porat, took the stage at Bar Le Ritz in Montreal on the second stop of her CRUSHED! Tour.
Following an energetic opening performance by Montrealer Claudia Bouvette, which had fans riled up and cheering, Porat opened with her popular hit, “Teardrop.”
The night was full of dancing and singing, and as the 18-song setlist continued, Alex Porat took the time to thank fans for coming, collect a few gifts, and share little moments about writing her EP: Crushed. She also took the time to say that Montreal was her loudest show yet, and the city’s crowd always is every time she performs here!
Porat’s career began through her covers that took off on YouTube, so fans were delighted for her to bring back one of her most popular covers, “Hopelessly Devoted to You” by Olivia Newton-John, as well as a cover of “Manchild” by Sabrina Carpenter later in the set.
The night was a wonderful mix of energetic music and slow, melodic songs, ranging from “Miss Sick World,” played slowly on the guitar, to “Face like Yours,” which was much more upbeat.
After performing an encore of “Better Than That,” and her most popular song “HATELOVE,” Alex Porat thanked the crowd for the wonderful night and left the stage, taking the time to meet fans afterwards at her merch booth.

Avenoir Brings ‘Mirage Tour’ to the Hollywood Theatre in Vancouver
Rising Canadian R&B artist Avenoir brought his Mirage Tour – Act One to Vancouver on March 12, playing an intimate show at the Hollywood Theatre. The evening opened with a set from Alberta-born singer-songwriter Jonah David, who warmed up the crowd with his 2-piece band before the headliner took the stage. David‘s performance was clearly a hit as fans asked for autograph as soon as his set ended.
Born in South Africa and raised in Edmonton, Avenoir has built serious momentum over the past year. His debut EP NOIRE earned a 2025 Juno nomination, and his music has racked up hundreds of millions of streams. The Vancouver stop was part of a short run of theatre shows meant to give fans a closer look at the fast-rising artist before a bigger year ahead.
The performance leaned into atmosphere. Avenoir kept movement minimal, often standing alone at center stage as his songs unfolded over sleek production, including great saxophone moments. His acoustics songs helped strengthen his connection with the audience. The production blended futuristic R&B with booming 808s and dramatic arrangements that gave several tracks a cinematic punch. His voice has a smoky tone that cuts through the heavy beats.
The show felt like a young artist still settling into the stage. The music is already there, and the confidence will likely follow.
