Heated Rivalry Live Brings Series Soundtrack to Montreal
Four musicians from the hit Crave series soundtrack perform Sept. 28 at the Rialto, with a Q&A from composer Peter Peter.
The show Heated Rivalry became a cultural moment for Montreal, and in September, the music behind it comes alive on stage. POP Montreal is hosting a live event at the Rialto Theatre on Sept. 28 featuring four acts whose songs appeared on the soundtrack of the hit Crave series: Dumas, La Bronze, Philippe B, and Night Lunch. They're pulling directly from the show's emotional DNA, the tracks that underscore its most charged moments.
The evening includes a Q&A with Peter Peter, the composer who scored the series—a rare chance to hear directly from someone who shaped the sonic world audiences fell into. There will also be special guests announced closer to the date, keeping some mystery alive.
Every ticket comes with a signed hardcover copy of Rachel Reid's Heated Rivalry novel, available in English or French. It's the kind of detail that turns a concert into an event—you leave not just with a memory of the night but with the book itself, creating a bridge between screen, stage, and page.
For anyone who binged the series or has been following the cultural conversation around it, this is the event that brings that world into the room. Montreal audiences rarely get chances to sit with the artists and creators who make the shows they're obsessed with. This is one of them.
