Last weekend, my coworker Molly and I took to the road and headed up to Montreal. We were inspired to take this semi-impromptu trip to see Em Beihold (headliner) and Madelline (opener) on tour. The concert we saw was nothing short of mesmerizing. The energy of the performers was contagious and I found myself dancing and singing along to every song. The concert had been an incredible showcase of talent, passion, and pure entertainment.
The concert I saw was at the Fairmount Theater, it was a cool intimate venue featuring a full bar, small seating areas, open dance floor, and stage. Although Madelline was just the opener, I’ve been following her career for the past couple of years and have gotten to experience the growth of her songwriting. I’m always looking for emerging and up and coming artists, and Madelline is one of my favorites thus far.
Madelline’s performance itself was fantastic, with her powerful vocals and infectious energy setting the tone for the rest of the evening. Her music was the perfect complement to the headlining act. The fact that I got to meet her and talk to her afterwards was just the icing on the cake. I has the amazing opportunity to meet to speak with Madelline for several minutes post her opening and after the shows conclusion. She was super kind and nice, taking the time to chat with me and take several photos together. I was left feeling exhilarated and grateful for the experience.
Molly and I spent the rest of our weekend wandering the streets, shopping, taking in the historic architecture, and sampling some of the delicious local cuisine. The city had a vibrant energy that was infectious, and I felt invigorated by the sights and sounds around me.
Overall, it was a night that I will always remember. From the beautiful city of Montreal to the amazing performers and the chance to meet one of my favorite musicians, it was an experience that I will treasure forever. I couldn’t have asked for a better night out, and I am already looking forward to the next time I get to see these incredible artists perform live.
