Dominique Fils-Aimé

Somewhere between Etta James, Billie Holiday and Nina Simone, this singer-songwriter who captivated spectators at La Voix in 2015, pays tribute to all the anonymous people involved in the civil rights movement of the 1960s with an eclectic groove that is both intimate and rebellious. Chosen as a Radio-Canada Jazz Revelation and nominated for the prestigious Polaris Prize, Dominique Fils-Aimé’s subliminal R&B soul draws from a rich heritage of African-American music.
