Jowee Omicil

They first crossed paths whilst filming Damian Chazelle The Eddy series - they immediately recognized each other!

Jowee Omicil is a jazz artist unlike any you've heard before. He brings a novel and distinctly Afro-Haitian perspective to his music. Omicil's melodic storytelling blends flavors from his Creole roots with gospel, soul, hip-hop and folk, not to mention nods to the masters - from Charlie Parker to Ornette Coleman. Let's BasH!, Omicil's fourth album, is both a cry of war and a declaration of love - but above all, it's a symbol of his mission to expand the popularity of jazz.

On November 6, 2020, the day after his 40th birthday, musician and composer Ibrahim Maalouf unveiled his 12th studio album entitled "40 Melodies" in reference to his 40 candles. The album is a complete departure from the artist's previous projects as for the first time in his 15-year discography, Ibrahim offers an intimate duo with his friend and collaborator of over 10 years, Belgian guitarist François Delporte. The duo revisit Ibrahim's melodies that have left their mark on the music scene, both on his albums and his soundtracks, as well as a few previously unreleased tracks. All of this with the appearance of a host of prestigious surprise guests (Sting, Matthieu Chedid, Marcus Miller, Alfredo Rodriguez, Richard Bona, Trilok Gurtu, Hüsnü Senlendrici, Jon Batiste, Arturo Sandoval, and many others). Ibrahim thus returns to his origins and to the essentials: a trumpet, a guitar and 40 melodies, to celebrate his 40th birthday.
