Music

Basia Bulat, Elton John and more just announced Toronto concerts

Canadian singer/songwriter Basia Bulat is back with her first new music in three years and a tour that will bring her to the Danforth Music Hall on April 30. 

The Etobicoke-born, Montreal-based singer will release her new album, Are You In Love?, on March 27 via Secret City – a full collaboration with producer Jim James (of My Morning Jacket). The first taste, the just-released Your Girl, finds her singular voice back in fine form, singing about broken hearts and broken promises. It’s classic-country timelessness, even if that’s not quite the genre she’s working in. Bulat lost her father during the recording of the album, and she wrote it around love, heartbreak, beauty and grief. 

The Danforth Music Hall concert will be a homecoming for Bulat, though she’s had another Toronto connection of late – she’s been a go-to collaborator for the latest lush art-pop incarnation of U.S. Girls. It just shows how versatile her voice is.

April 30 at Danforth Music Hall (147 Danforth), doors 7 pm. $22.50-$32.50. On sale Friday (November 22). eventbrite.ca, rotate.com, soundscapesmusic.com. 

Also announced this week: two more farewell shows from Elton John, who just can’t stop saying farewell. And two stops from Harry Styles and his adult band. All the details on those and more shows below.
