Samaël is a guitarist and instrumental composer from New Brunswick, Canada. He was introduced to the guitar at the age of 12. His innate talent and strength of character helped him learn the instrument quickly and allowed him to already share his passion 5 years later as a teacher.

He perfected his musical knowledge at the prestigious Musicians Institute where he obtained an associate degree in guitar performance in 2010. Subsequently, he obtained a bachelor's degree in classical music at Concordia University and a master's degree in musicology at the University of Montreal.

A real archipelago of sounds, his compositions also earned him the right to be recruited by the Haut St-Jean Philharmonic Orchestra for two musical arrangements, including one of his compositions. His formidable talent and his artistic wealth as well as his devotion also allows him to share the stage with the Acadian group, Sale Barbes, in 2021. He also participates in the fierce national competition, The Canadian Guitar Festival, twice, in 2015 and 2017 then performs several national tours as well as a coast-to-coast tour Canadian in 2018.

Very versatile, Samaël is certainly not afraid of challenges and rather sees them as an opportunity for improvement and learning! Whether for arrangements, compositions, co-productions, or educational services, Samaël will undoubtedly be able to immerse you in his ephemeral universe which awaken our senses to the depth unequivocally reflected from the complexity and dexterity of the artist.

Camilo Villamizar-Báez (he/him) Is an ECMA-nominated Colombian-Canadian guitarist, bassist, and producer. A self-described lifelong music student, Camilo's latest projects include the formation of Trio de Janeiro, a group focused on the exploration of Brazilian music with a strong emphasis on jazz. He is now presenting a solo version of this concept; featuring a rich rhythm guitar style that seeks to fuse tradition with a life of diverse influences, and words delivered in their original Brazillian Portuguese
