Jelly Roll’s highly anticipated performance at Place Bell in Laval was a night to remember, as the venue was packed to capacity with excited fans eager to witness his first-ever Quebec tour stop. The show delivered high-energy performances, heartfelt moments, and a celebration of country and rock influences.
Savannah Dexter Quebec Debut
The evening kicked off with Savannah Dexter, a rising country singer from Florida. She expressed her excitement about finally making it to Canada, something she had always dreamed of. To mark the occasion, she delivered a special mash-up of her own songs, weaving in a Shania Twain classic—a nod to her Canadian debut. Her performance was a perfect warm-up, setting a strong tone for the night.
Intermission Arena Rockerz
Between sets, DJs kept the energy high, engaging the crowd with classic sing-along anthems. Their presence as an intermission act was a smart addition, keeping fans hyped and ready for the next big performance.
Josh Ross lights up the night
Next up was Toronto-born singer Josh Ross, personally invited by Jelly Roll to bring a Canadian voice to the tour. Ross, who has been making waves with his hit single “Trouble,” impressed with his stage presence and vocal talent. He also treated the audience to a cover of Hinder’s “Lips of an Angel,” which sounded just as powerful live as it does in the studio. Having seen him perform at Lasso 2024 last year, it was clear that his talent continues to shine.
Jelly Roll shows why he sells out arenas
When Jelly Roll finally took the stage, he made an unforgettable entrance—walking through the crowd to a side stage, surrounded by the dramatic imagery of a burning house structure. His excitement about touring in Canada was evident throughout his set. At one point, he brought Josh Ross back on stage to join him for a heartfelt performance of his whiskey-themed song. Jelly Roll’s set also included a cover of Green Day, full-band performances, and a massive screen projecting live footage of the concert, making every seat in the house feel close to the action.
One of the most touching moments of the night came when Jelly Roll acknowledged a fan who had battled addiction and was now fighting cancer. He dedicated a song to her, bringing an emotional and personal touch to an already electrifying show.
Overall, Jelly Roll’s sold-out Laval concert was more than just a performance—it was an experience filled with passion, powerful music, and moments of real connection. His Quebec debut was a resounding success, leaving fans eagerly awaiting his return.
