Born and raised in Brazil - and currently thriving in New York, JAMILE's artistry includes a love of language, a closeness with genre, a deep feeling for style—and a demand to throw all of these aside for the pleasures of transcendence. Jamile specifically loves mixing modern jazz and Brazilian jazz, as well as her original compositions, in a unique set of music that is rarely heard.
Her latest album,PURSUIT OF A PULSE (via Cellar Music Group), is the endless quest for music that makes one’s heart race—the ceaseless life-affirming pulse that emerges when music seeps deep into one’s pores.
Referencing composers that are still alive and/or have been pivotal innovators of recent times, Jamile invokes both the heartbeat of those still with us, and the ancestral pulse that provides guidance, making a clear statement that the jazz art form lives on through the footsteps of those who choose to walk along its path and carve new trails.
Interlacing modern jazz, classical, and Brazilian music, the resulting sound is of its own category.
