Pop lovers, get ready to be swept off your feet! Rising star ALI is back with her newest single, “Trick Of The Light” and it’s an absolute gem. This track dives deep into the realms of perception and self-discovery.

After captivating us with hits like “When the Summer’s Back“, “Hourglass” and “Lonely”, ALI returns with “Trick Of The Light” a piece that’s both haunting and beautiful. It’s a theatrical tale that mirrors her own life story—leaving her cozy hometown in Spain, to chase her dreams in the bustling streets of London. This song is a sneak peek into her much-anticipated debut album, dropping later this year.

“Trick Of The Light” reminds us all that things aren’t always what they seem. It explores the tension between the image we project and the battles we fight within.

But there’s more! This track also captures ALI’s fearless spirit. It’s about standing tall against doubts and expectations, and the fear of failure that comes with daring to dream big.

Once again teaming up with her go-to producer, Yuriy Salud, ALI has crafted a pop anthem that’s bursting with raw emotion. “Trick Of The Light” features ethereal background vocals and harmonies that complement the maturity and emotional depth of her voice. The result? A song with soaring melodies and evocative lyrics that will take you on a rollercoaster of feelings.

Toronto gets one of the last stops on the biggest breakout run in pop. sombr brings his You Are The Reason Tour to Scotiabank Arena on Monday, November 16, with Dove Cameron and Hannah Jadagu opening the night.

The show starts at 7:00 PM, and the Toronto date sits near the end of a 37 show North American arena tour. The run opened in July at the Pepsi Center in Mexico City and closes at Madison Square Garden in sombr’s hometown of New York City, which makes the Scotiabank Arena stop one of the final chances to catch the tour before it wraps.

The rise behind the tour is real. sombr is a Grammy nominee for Best New Artist, and his debut album I Barely Know Her turned one year old this fall. In April he made his Coachella debut, a set the tour announcement noted for a special guest appearance from Billy Corgan of The Smashing Pumpkins. Since then the You Are The Reason show has been traveling, and his own tour posts from the road have shown packed rooms and a singer who treats every stage like it is the one that matters.

Toronto’s support lineup is part of the draw. Dove Cameron brings her own pop following to the bill, and Hannah Jadagu opens, giving the night three distinct voices before the headliner takes the stage. Support has rotated across the tour, with names like Interpol, The Last Dinner Party and Tom Odell appearing in other cities, and the Toronto pairing of Cameron and Jadagu is set for this date only.

For an artist who was writing songs alone in his room not long ago, an arena in downtown Toronto on a Monday night says plenty about how far the music has traveled. Tickets for the November 16 show are available through Ticketmaster.
