Allison Russell live in Montreal

Experience Allison Russell live on October 23rd

Allison Russell will perform at Théâtre Beanfield in Montreal, Canada on October 23, 2026. Russell is a Canadian singer-songwriter and poet whose music blends folk, Americana, and roots traditions with elements of spoken word and contemporary arrangements. Her work frequently explores themes of trauma, resilience, and Black queer identity, drawing heavily from personal experience. She gained prominence as a founding member of the acclaimed folk duo Our Native Daughters and the group Birds of Chicago before releasing her solo debut album *Outside Child* in 2021, which received significant critical acclaim and multiple award nominations.

Théâtre Beanfield is a mid-sized concert venue located in the Mile End neighbourhood of Montreal. Originally opened as Club Soda in 1989 by renowned promoter Donald K. Donald, it underwent renovations and a name change to Théâtre Beanfield in 2023 following a partnership with cannabis company Beanfield. The venue is known for its intimate atmosphere and diverse programming, hosting both established artists and emerging talent across various genres including rock, indie, electronic, and world music. It maintains a standing-room general admission format for many shows alongside limited seated options.
