Jessie Reyez in Concert
Combining unapologetic lyrics with in-your-face vocals, Toronto-born singer-songwriter Jessie Reyez is one of pop's brashest personalities. Reyez played guitar as a child and realized she was a music writer while in high school. In 2014 she collaborated with Chicago-based MC King Louie on his Canada-saluting track "Living in the Sky." In 2016 she broke through on her own with "Figures," a stark post-breakup track paired with a gripping video that showcased Reyez's raw feeling. "Evoking emotion from people is always a byproduct," Reyez told Genius. "It's not like I aimed to do that, but it's a beautiful byproduct that happens to come from certain songs."
Now, as a recipient of a JUNO award, 2018 Breakthrough Artist of the Year, she could say her subsequent catalog has been an object lesson in releasing that byproduct. Her debut EP, 2017's 'Kiddo,' was steeped in feeling while also showing off her musical range and the delirious "Shutter Island" pairs her yowl with macabre carnival music, while "Great One" shows off her softer side, its plush synths allowing her to luxuriate in existential questions like "What is life? What is love? What is time? What is choice?" The harrowing 'Kiddo' track "Gatekeeper," accompanied by a short film that she cowrote, turned a #MeToo-worthy experience from years ago that almost led to her quitting the music business into an artistic triumph.
While gearing up for the release of her second EP, 'Being Human in Public,' Reyez has kept busy with guest appearances and relentless touring. Her reworking of "Figures," performed with fellow Canadian Daniel Caesar at the 2018 JUNO Awards, added a dramatic twist to the song's heartbroken narrative; her turn as Eminem's foil on the controversial MC's 2018 track "Nice Guy" shows how she can hold her own against music's biggest names; and her performances at festivals like Lollapalooza and Afropunk have electrified huge crowds. Reyez's rise is proof that pure feeling can be a powerful connector.

Jessie reyez is my favorite artist! She really knows how to put on a performance and immerse you in the experience. I love her audience interactions. I had the dream opportunity to sing with her when she came up to me at the show. My night was made!!!
Amazing performance! She never disappoints and I really felt like the set was perfectly curated.
Packed need more room. Jesse did an amazing performance. Security was definitely lacking inside.
Jesse was (is) PHENOMENAL!! She needs the big stages!
Instagram clips don’t do her justice. Jessie Reyez LIVE is a must see! The already amazing body of work comes to life in a different way at her show.
She is the most personable, down to earth artist I have ever seen in concert. She makes her fans feel seen and appreciated. I loved being able to experience this and I will absolutely be seeing her next year, multiple times if I can lol. That 6 hour drive was so worth it!
Absolutely worth every penny and more!! She connects with every inch, every person! The energy is beautiful!
Great Show And Wonderful Beautiful Musician The Opening Musician Was Amazing As Well With Beautiful Harmonies.
No complaints but I will definitely purchase VIP next time and I hope she comes again.
This was the best performance I've ever seen. She's so talented, authentic and kind and empathetic. You can really tell she is doing what she loves. The way she moves and sings on stage is like she was made to perform. Such a talented and beautiful person inside and out.
Practically a spiritual experience. Jessie killed it! It was sexy, emotionally vulnerable, funny, cathartic, and exciting. Left sounding like an 80 year old smoker as intended. Not sure if she’ll ever see this but if you do, thank you! The most fun, even her Dad popped in for a dance.
I absolutely loved Jessie Reyes she is a great performer, singer and songwriter. She definitely engaged with the crowd and brought to light real life problems happening right now! The venue itself was great they were handing out water and helped those that needed. I appreciate the crew that was working that night they were the best of the best!
Got to drag my best friend there and it was a night I’ll never forget
Jessie is just such a performer and her lyrics just speak to me. I enjoyed all the things Jessie did to make the experience unique like the gender reveal.
I’ve seen countless shows over the years and I truly cannot emphasize enough how phenomenal Jessie Reyez is. Her stage presence, her genuine happiness, her soul stopping artistry and thoughtfulness that goes into every detail of her shows is evident.
As an avid concert goer I’ve become accustomed to being let down by artists that don’t sound great live. Jessie Reyez is NOT in that category!! She’s beautiful, sounds amazing and had fantastic crowd interaction!
Jessie was amazing and the venue was perfect. Seating was easy and grabbing drinks even easier. I had a great time.
This was the perfect concert for my daughter’s first concert. Her vibe was amazing
I’ve been to 50+ concerts throughout my lifetime and none come close to the show Jessie Reyez put on! Can’t wait to see her again next time!
This was such an easy process. Loved seeing Jessie Reyez for the first time. Next time I'll go closer. Only thing I complain about is the parking price. That was ridiculous
