Jade Lemac at the Theatre Beanfield in Montreal

Published

on

On January 29th, 2026, fans young and old gathered together in Montreal’s Theatre Beanfield for Jade Lemac’s It’s Always at Night tour stop.

First, the audience sang and danced to a wonderful opening performance by Chiara Savasta, whose music complimented Lemac‘s, and definitely set the tone for the night. Her performance also included a cover of “Black Sheep” by Metric, which had everyone singing along in the crowd.

At 9pm, Jade Lemac took the stage with an opening performance of “Heaven’s Sake.” While singing, she took some time to interact with the crowd, throwing a few waves and hand hearts to audience members she recognized, or who were showing a lot of energy.

Lemac has the stage presence to not rely on theatrics in order to have a lasting concert. Her voice enchanted everyone in the room, and the moody lighting demonstrated well the energy and emotion she was reflecting in her music. There was even a small fan-project, as audience members brought pink balloons to throw in the air during her song “Pink Balloon,” performed
midway in the set.

Closing with fan-favourites including “Constellations” and “Running Home,” the audience cheered loudly as Lemac thanked everyone for coming out. This was Jade Lemac’s third performance in Montreal, and fans left the venue already awaiting the next!

Buffalo Traffic Jam at the Danforth Music Hall in Toronto

Buffalo Traffic Jam-Toronto-4

There is something magical about voices matching the season. The excitement of walking up to the Danforth Music Hall on the perfect autumn night, only to be engulfed in raw, emotive rasp.

Lydia Maes really pulled me in. There’s such an emotional quality to her voice. The way she incorporates the saxophone and the way she hypnotizes the crowd. She played a beautiful set and then later came out with her fiddle, to join Buffalo Traffic Jam.

Colin Lynch completely caught me off guard, with a voice that sounds like he sells out stadiums. He’s young, but that soulful, raspy, depth speaks to every age. 

Then came the one and only Buffalo Traffic Jam. Gritty, earthy harmonies took over the Danforth and the crowd was electrified. There’s something about their sound that feels both stripped down and warm at the same time, and the moment they started, we were all at their mercy.

Sabaton Bring Fire and Fury to Vancouver on North American Tour Finale

Published

Sabaton

After many many years away from Vancouver, Sabaton returned to the PNE Forum on October 8 for a fiery night of heavy metal, military-themed theatrics and massive sing-alongs. The Swedish metal band chose the city to close out its North American tour, and it went out with a bang.

Opening the night was Pop Evil, whose modern hard rock offered a different sound from the headliner’s power metal. Tracks like “Trenches” brought plenty of energy, giving the crowd a reason to get moving before the main event. Their heavier riffs and commanding stage presence made for a solid start to the evening despite the low lighting.

Sabaton wasted little time making its return count. Kicking off with “Ghost Division,” the band delivered a wall of sound backed by pounding drums, sharp guitar riffs and bursts of fire that lit up the Forum. The stage, complete with military-inspired hardware, gave the performance the feel of a full-scale production rather than a standard metal concert.

Frontman Joakim Brodén led the charge with his unmistakable voice and natural sense of showmanship. Songs like “The Last Stand,” “Stormtroopers” and “Night Witches” showcased the band’s knack for turning historical stories into anthems built for thousands of voices. The crowd happily did its part, singing along throughout the night.

The spectacle never distracted from the music. Flames punctuated the band’s heaviest moments, adding extra intensity to “Bismarck,” “Fields of Verdun” and “The Attack of the Dead Men.” For the latter, the band leaned into the song’s subject matter with gas masks, adding another theatrical touch to an already explosive set.

The closing stretch was pure Sabaton. “Swedish Pagans” brought another huge audience sing-along before “Primo Victoria” and “To Hell and Back” sent the Forum into the night at full volume.

After seven years, Sabaton gave Vancouver plenty of reasons to welcome them back. Closing the North American tour with a performance this tight, loud and entertaining was a fitting end to the run. With commanding vocals, memorable choruses and enough pyro to warm the entire Forum, the band left little doubt that its next visit cannot come soon enough.
