Info
On 16 September 2026, MTELUS in Montréal hosts Alabama Shakes with Emily King. Formed in Athens, Alabama, Alabama Shakes—centered on Brittany Howard—bring together a band that blends rock, soul and blues with a sharp simplicity. Propelled by an expressive voice and warm-toned guitars, their songs move from a tight groove to more atmospheric textures. From Boys & Girls to Sound & Color, the band has expanded its scope without losing melodic impact or rhythmic tension. In concert, this alchemy is heard in stripped-down arrangements, a precise rhythm section and buildups that make room for the vocals and guitar textures.
Emily King joins the bill with a modern R&B rooted in soul and pop. Born in New York to a family of musicians, she shapes songs with a supple groove, carried by clear melodies and intimate songwriting. From East Side Story to Special Occasion, she has refined a subtle but precise sound, where vocal harmonies and acoustic guitar meet elegant production. On stage, her vocal presence settles in effortlessly, between pared-back numbers and softer rhythms, in perfect echo of Alabama Shakes’ rootsy, sensitive energy.
