Ash Ravens: 2-time Capital Music Award nominee Ash Ravens creates music that moves freely across borders — cultural, emotional, and sonic. Born in Bangladesh and now based in Ottawa, Canada, Ash fuses intricate Eastern melodies with the drive of Western pop-rock, the fluidity of fusion, and the deep pulse of groove-based music, crafting a sound that’s unmistakably his own. Ash has earned recognition not just for his technical and production skills, but for the heart and originality in every track. His nylon-string guitar work brings a warm, human touch to compositions that balance musical sophistication with memorable hooks. Just as expressive is his electric guitar playing — masterful, dynamic, and full of character, it adds edge and intensity to his more energetic material. Whether delivering soaring instrumentals or groove-laden ballads, Ash’s music resists labels with its fearless genre-blending, yet stays perfectly accessible to any true music fan. Cosmopolitan but personal, intricate yet catchy, Ravens offers a genre-bending experience rooted in art, feeling, and a love for the groove.
Almyr Jules: Almyr Jules is a rising voice in Canada’s Ballad Soul and R&B scene, hailing from Ottawa, Ontario. His music is a lush fusion of smooth, heartfelt ballads and timeless R&B groove delivering velvety vocals, soul-baring lyrics, and melodies that wrap around listeners like a warm embrace. Drawing inspiration from soul icons like Leon Bridges and Allen Stone, and the pop-soul sensibility of artists like Bruno Mars, Almyr crafts songs that are deeply emotional yet universally relatable. Each performance is honest, intimate, and captivating
