CBC East Coat Music Hour Song Camp
In the three days leading up to Shivering Songs, CBC East Coast Music Hour will bring together six songwriters from across Atlantic Canada to weave something entirely new. Six voices, one creative space—collaborating, experimenting, and letting new songs take shape. These songs will find their first breath on the opening night, January 23, 2025, at The Fredericton Playhouse. Looking forward to sharing that magic with you.
Artists: Rose Cousins, Julie Doiron, Wolf Castle, Jah’Mila, P’tit Bellieveau, Jake Nicoll
Jah’Mila
Meet Jah’Mila, Juno-nominated reggae singer hailing from Kingston, Jamaica, who now calls Nova Scotia home. A beacon for Jamaican music and culture in the Maritimes, Jah’Mila's music embodies the spirit of traditional Jamaican roots, infused with elements of jazz and soul.
Her journey has led her to tour with renowned reggae acts like The Wailers, Black Uhuru, and Groundation to name a few. She has also collaborated with the National Arts Centre Orchestra, Toronto Symphony Orchestra and the Symphony Nova Scotia honing her skills as a vocalist and a cultural reggae ambassador along the way.
Her Juno nominated debut album, "Roots Girl," released in 2022, is a spirited collection of reggae songs that not only honors her cultural roots, but also serves as a platform for social advocacy. Through her music, she champions a vision of a more inclusive, diverse, and supported arts community.
With the unwavering support of her musical team, Jah’Mila stands poised to light up every stage, continuing to captivate hearts and inspire minds in Canada, and all across the world!
