Ammoye
Bio
Ammoye is a unique multidimensional vocalist raised in the tradition of Reggae music. Hailing from Clarendon, Jamaica and now residing in Toronto, Canada, this 7X Juno Award nominee is at the forefront of the genre domestically and making waves internationally. Ammoye is easily cast as one of Canada’s best Reggae and fusion vocalists, and considered by many music tastemakers as Canadian Reggae’s “Next Big Thing”.
With an impressive stage presence to match her powerful and soulful vocals, Ammoye delivers uplifting messages of love, unity, and social justice. Ammoye's songs speak to themes of compassion, forgiveness, empowerment, and the importance of standing up for what is right.
Ammoye’s sophomore album, “Water” (2021), earned her a 2023 JUNO Award nomination for “Reggae Recording Of The Year” as well as Grammy Award consideration. A blend of old-school rocksteady, dancehall and dubstep sprinkled with gospel, soul and R&B, the 13 track LP featured a cast of producers from Canada, Jamaica, the U.S. and Germany. With its release and acclaim began a new era of international appeal and opportunities.
In 2025, Ammoye plans to release The Shift. A natural follow-up and continuation of the sound she established on Water, The Shift will focus on themes of realignment and harmony during the transformational phases of our lives. It is about finding the light and celebrating the highest truth, harnessing the power both collectively and within. Ammoye has found the new version of herself, and through telling her story, wants her audience to find theirs too. Alongside the album, Ammoye also plans to unveil her first book, *Ammoye’s Book of Affirmations*, as a companion piece to inspire personal growth and self-discovery. She’ll also launch a series of intimate live performances and workshops to bring fans closer to the transformative journey of *The Shift*, fostering a community of connection and empowerment."
Following the success of Water, Ammoye partnered with two booking agencies- Demerchant Artist Agency (DAA)! (Canada) and Pasa Musik (Quebec only). Ammoye also partnered with award winning management company, Unique Applause. This led to her busiest touring year yet, with notable performances at COMA Fest Brazil, Mundial Montreal, Rideau Festival Quebec, Mariposa Folk Festival, Northern Lights Festival Boréal, Bout de Monde Festival and Reeperbahn 2024 in Germany. Ammoye recently accepted invitations to perform at AFROFEST Africa in Cape Town and Africa Rising Music Conference in Johannesburg South Africa. These bookings, along with showcases in North America and beyond, hint towards the next phase in Ammoye’s career evolution.
