Acoustic Avenue is a one-night-only return to Ottawa for singersongwriter Alexander Bella, joined by close friends and fellow artists Pat Rees and Matt Spafford. Taking place at Live on Elgin on September 4th, the night promises stripped-down sets, honest storytelling, and the kind of songs that bring you to a standstill. Now based in Hamilton, Alexander returns to the city that shaped so much of his musical journey—bringing with him a set of songs born from late nights, early mornings, and quiet moments that stayed longer than they should have. Pat Rees and Matt Spafford will open and close the evening with solo sets of their own—each offering their own take on what it means to share something real through music. Expect a laid-back atmosphere, rhythm you can lean into, and songs that speak without raising their voice. Acoustic Avenue isn't about the big moment. It's about the still one.
