Genre
Jazz
Jowee Omicil plays reeds and woodwinds; he is also a composer, bandleader, producer, and educator. His tone, alternately soulful, spiritual, and warm, reflects his time playing and singing in his father's church and his studies at Berklee College of Music. He is the son of Haitian immigrants to Montreal. His 2006 debut, Let's Do This, offered global grooves inside contemporary jazz. 2009's Roots & Grooves showcased cultural differences and dialogue with musicians from four continents. 2014's Naked offered tributes to various influences in (mostly) compact compositions. 2017's acclaimed Let's Bash! delivered contemporary jazz-funk and soul-jazz tunes, while 2018's Love Matters revealed avant expressions amid Afro-Caribbean rhythms. 2020's Lekture provided various jazz, folk, and sacred music traditions in miniature compositions. 2024's Spiritual Healing: Bwa Kayiman Freedom Suite was composed and improvised in an attempt to re-create the energy of an 18th century voodoo ceremony that reportedly inspired the Haitian Revolution.
