Jun 15, 2018 | 2:00 PM

Madeline Merlo’s performance last night at the Dekker Centre was one to remember.

The rising country star played her solo concert to around 250 people in an intimate setting. The Maple Ridge, B.C. native played around two-hour set including her hits such as “Neon Love,” which just hit 1 million streams on spotify, “Motel Flamingo,” and an emotional rendition of her hit “War Paint”.

Fans loved the set, saying she had great energy throughout the performance.

Merlo also shared a personal story and announced that she will donate proceeds of her merchandise sales to local mental health hospitals and initiatives, including the Saskatchewan Hospital in North Battelford, as the cause is close to her heart.
