Jowee OmicilA spiritual yet lively mix that combines jazz, gospel, Afro-Haitian rhythms, and hip-hop.

Jowee Omicil is a tireless border crosser who is always exploring new musical worlds. No category does justice to this exceptional artist – a saxophonist, singer, pianist and visionary who draws inspiration from his Haitian roots to create music that tastes of freedom and is carried by a mystical touch of rebellion and memory. Born in Montréal to Haitian parents, Jowee Omicil combines his origins, encounters, travels and discoveries in his music to create a unique expression of curiosity and authenticity. His music combines the freedom of jazz, the depth of gospel and pulsating beats that surprise, refresh and give strength - an energy boost for the soul. Omicil will present his latest work "sMiles", which will be released on November 11, 2025. It is a manifesto of uncompromising authenticity. It celebrates one's own expression, the beauty of the imperfect and the courage to take risks. What at first glance seems like a rebellious network turns out to be a clear commitment to boundless freedom – the common thread that connects all his work. He pays tribute to Roy Hargrove, reminds us of Wayne Shorter, bows to Miles Davis and remains unmistakably himself: never imitating, always creatively new.
