Alessia Cara

April 12 2025

9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
The NorVa 317 Monticello Ave, Norfolk, VA 23510 Price: Price may vary

Sensitive, strong-minded, and undeniably soulful, Alessia Cara writes songs that speak to the most hidden parts of the heart. Since signing with Def Jam Recordings at just 18-years-old, the Toronto-based singer/songwriter’s down-to-earth honesty and larger-than-life talent have earned her massive acclaim and countless accolades, including five Juno Awards and a 2018 GRAMMY for Best New Artist. In the making of her fourth album Love & Hyperbole, Alessia brought her newly emboldened vision to a body of work exploring emotional territory previously uncharted in her music: the beautifully strange thrill of finding true happiness.
