Jean-Sebastien Williams has played an important role in music both in Montreal and internationally with his remarkable work as a composer, guitarist and musician.  As a film composer he has worked on different shorts, feature films and ads. Amongst his influences are Mika Levi and Jóhann Jóhannsson. Like them, he likes to push the boundariesof what music can do, by challenging the traditions and experimenting. Williams sees the score as one of the characters, inseparable from the visual and often blurs the line between sound design and film music composition. In 2019 he was nominated for best original song at the Academy Screen Awards for the film “Sashinka”.  

As a guitar player, his unique talent has led him to work with acclaimed artists such as Elisapie, Yannick Rieu, Térez Montcalm, Alejandra Ribera, Socalled and others. In 2019 Williams released his first album From a Plane which was recorded with Rob Heaney (Patrick Watson, Barr Brothers) and has been nominated for best debut album at the Independant Music Awards.

Le trio instrumental Misc présente un nouvel album titré « Partager l’ambulance ».Avec cet opus audacieux dont les compositions sont solidement ancrées dans une époque de questionnement et un contexte social houleux, Misc poursuit son exploration et brouille davantage les limites entre les genres musicaux.S’inscrivant dans une tradition jazz de par son vocabulaire et la place qu’occupe l’improvisation dans sa musique, le jeune trio puise aussi dans les univers pop, rock et électro. Ces influences se traduisent par des mélodies et des groove solides et accrocheurs, des percussions variées et inusitées et l’utilisation d’échantillonnage et d’effets multiples.Depuis leurs débuts, les trois musiciens ont à cœur de se réinventer et sortir du canevas du trio jazz traditionnel, pour amener leur musique là où elle sera entendue. Avec le très attendu «Partager l’ambulance», Misc met en plein dans le mille, proposant un album fort à la fois intemporel et surprenant.

Composer and tenor saxophonist Yannick Rieu is one of the finest musicians - in any genre of music - to have emerged from Québec, and one who’s also enjoyed an international career for many years, particularly in France. As early as 1988, Down Beat, the American bible of jazz, ranked him amongst the 20 most promising sax players in the world along side Branford Marsalis, Joe Lovano and Courtney Pine. Since then, he’s been collecting rave reviews in jazz publications in the U.S., France and Canada for his recordings and his live performances.

Jean-Michel Pilc (born 1960 in Paris, France) is a self-taught jazz pianist currently residing in Montreal. His technical ability has drawn comparisons to Michel Petrucciani, McCoy Tyner, and Cecil Taylor. Of particular note is Pilc's left-hand technique, which provides an almost ambidextrous approach to the keyboard. In addition to his own projects, he is a member of a group led by drummer Ari Hoenig. https://www.jeanmichelpilc.com

Playing that is both intense and under control, breathtaking precision, magnetic stage presence, refreshing original compositions: that’s the formidable package offered by Rémi Bolduc, one of Canada’s best jazz saxophonists. With his band, the Rémi Bolduc Jazz Ensemble, he composes and plays numbers that convey his formidable energy and spontaneity, allowing his organic sound to breathe freely. A versatile and dynamic artist, Rémi Bolduc performs regularly with some of our most renowned jazz musicians such as Kenny Werner, Ben Monder, Seamus Blake, Lorraine Desmarais, Vic Vogel, Thom Gossage, Ralph Bowen, Jerry Bergonzi and others. He teaches saxophone, improvisation and ensemble classes at Montreal’s McGill University. Rémi Bolduc plays on a Yamaha saxophone and D'addario reeds. https://www.mcgill.ca/music/remi-bolduc

Ariane Racicot est une pianiste et compositrice de jazz montréalaise. En 2019, elle fonde son propre trio avec Antoine Rochefort à la basse électrique et Guillaume Picard à la batterie, menant à la conception de son premier album, Envolée. Sorti le 6 mai dernier sur le label Multiple Chord Music, la production d’Envolée a été subventionnée par le Conseil des Arts du Canada. Cette sortie lui a permis d’être sacrée Révélation Jazz Radio-Canada 2022-2023, puis d’être invitée à faire la première partie de Wynton Marsalis et le Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra au Festival International de Jazz de Montréal le 30 juin. Son jeu s’inspire de celui d’Hiromi Uehara, de Tigran Hamasyan, de Chick Corea et de Keith Jarrett, en plus d’intégrer des éléments de la musique classique et métal. Très passionnée sur scène, Ariane captive l’audience par son émotivité, son énergie enflammée et sa générosité avec le public.  En plus de sortir son premier album Envolée et de parfaire ses connaissances à la maîtrise, Ariane est également dédiée à l’enseignement du piano depuis presque dix ans.
