Nessa Barrett came to Toronto to play a packed History last night (Feb. 13), and she had the whole venue screaming her name.

The rising alt-pop artist has gone viral many times over on TikTok and other social media (she has over 6 million Instagram followers and over 2 billion global streams, still early in her career), and has had major co-signs from Lana Del Rey, who has brought her on stage and posted her song "Love Looks Pretty On You" on Instagram.


Celebrating the recent Warner release of her deluxe Aftercare album, she played her buzziest songs, including "Pornstar" and "S.L.U.T.", and an intimate version of "Babydoll," which brought her down to her knees to sing while connecting with the crowd.

Before the show, Barrett joined Billboard Canada backstage to discuss her favourite Canadian artist and what she does when she gets to Toronto.

She also shared her favourite (bleep-heavy) slang terms and 5 things we don't know about her, including her plans to move from the U.S. to the U.K.. Stay tuned for those videos at Billboard Canada's Instagram.
