Alessia Caracciolo (born July 11, 1996), better known as Alessia Cara, is a Canadian singer-songwriter.At the age of 13, she started a YouTube channel where she posted covers of songs. The record label EP Entertainment reached out to her from her videos, and she signed a management deal with them in 2014. The following year, she released her debut single "Here". The song, from the perspective of someone at a party who secretly hates being there (based on a real-life experience where she attended a disastrous house party) became a Sleeper Hit in the US, peaking at #5 on the Billboard Hot 100, and has been dubbed a wallflower anthem.Alessia released her debut EP, Four Pink Walls, in August 2015 several months after "Here", with her debut album, Know-It-All, releasing in November of that year. The album generated another hit single, "Scars to Your Beautiful", which peaked at #8 on the Hot 100. In 2016, she was tapped to sing the credits version of “How Far I’ll Go� from Moana.Her second album, The Pains of Growing, was released in 2018; her third, In the Meantime, was released in 2021. In 2023, she confirmed via Twitter that she is working on her fourth album.Alessia has been involved in notable collaborations, namely working with Zedd on the single "Stay" and featuring alongside Khalid on Logic's song "1-800-273-8255", both in 2017.In 2020, she made her acting debut as Jane in the Netflix animated film The Willoughbys; she also sings the movie’s theme “I Choose�.Alessia has been nominated for six Grammy Awards (including two Latin Grammys), winning for Best New Artist in 2018.

comment
Genre Shift: Her first album was very urban/R&B, whereas her second album and later releases have been trended towards a more general pop, folk, electronic, pop-rockish sound.

Daddy's Girl: The opening line from the first song on her debut album opens is an ode to her father. When she went to New York in July 2014 to sign with her record label, her dad accompanied her and was with her at interviews, and sometimes even at her concerts. The first song off her second album also opens with a cameo'd line from her father: "You're on your own, kid." In "Clockwork", she says: "I'm like my father, I am stubborn."

Celebrity Resemblance: A kind of inverted version of this, many people mistakenly think she plays the role of Moana in the titular film, as she sings the theme song to the film and resembles the character thanks to her curly hair:

Sampling: "Here" samples "Ike's Rap II" by Isaac Hayes. "Bluebird" samples a Chinese cover of the song "I Wish You Love".

Never Bareheaded: Likes to wear hats of all sorts. Notably, early in her career, she'd often be seen wearing a beanie; her band's logo is a drawing of her wearing her "beanie low" as referenced in her song "Here":

All Women Love Shoes: She loves wearing sneakers, even with outfits you'd not expect someone to wear sneakers with (such as dresses◊ and suits◊). She mentions the shoes in her song "Find My Boy":

You Are Worth Hell: "Outlaws" has a variation: the narrator promises that her partner in crime will never face a judge alone. The whole song is more of a metaphor for a forbidden relationship though:
