Daniel Caesar celebrated the release of his debut album Freudian with five consecutive sold-out shows at the Danforth Music Hall. He recently surprise-released his sophomore album, Case Study 01, and is once again launching a multi-night hometown stand – two nights at Budweiser Stage… so far.
Case Study is a slightly more experimental album than the last one, stretching his warm psychedelic soul sound in new directions, with hints of reggae and contemporary hip-hop production. He’s got a bold-faced list of collaborators, with appearances from John Mayer, Pharrell and Brandy.
So this run of shows likely won’t have the same graduation feel as the last one – he’s fully established now, for better and worse – but it could have a flashier guest list.
September 28-29 at Budweiser Stage (909 Lake Shore West), doors 6 pm, all ages. $25-$59.50. ticketmaster.ca.
