Jowee Omicil On The World Show With Nicky B

Loading player...
This week on The World Show, we have Jowee Omicil, a creative, free-form musician from Paris.
Jowee, a musician who plays a variety of wind and brass instruments, was born in Canada to Haitian immigrants.

In 1791, a group of enslaved Haitians met in the woods of Bois Caïman, on the country's north coast, and conducted a secret collective ceremony that inspired a mass uprising and laid the groundwork for the Haitian Revolution. Jowee transports the listener to that event through his powerful brand-new release, "SpiriTuaL HeaLinG: Bwa KaYimaN FreeDoM SuiTe."
