Dominique Fils-Aimé

The two-time JUNO Award winning singer-songwriter from Montreal, Dominique Fils-Aimé, is an artist that puts the history of African American musical culture into the heart of her work, reflecting on the social realities that influenced the genres of blues, jazz and soul.

Her debut full-length album Nameless, launched in 2018, was about confronting historical silences and sorrows. This blues-tinged album has become an audiophile’s reference recording across the globe and led to two sold out shows at the Montreal International Jazz Festival in 2018.

In 2019, her second album, Stay Tuned! was a call for revolution. This album won the 2020 JUNO Award for Vocal Jazz Album of the Year as well as the Félix prize for Best Jazz Album at the 2019 ADISQ Gala, was shortlisted for the Polaris Music Prize and featured among the 19 best Canadian albums of 2019 by CBC. Dominique Fils-Aimé was also nominated that same year as Radio-Canada’s 2019-2020 “Revelation in Jazz”.

Following this album, she toured all over Canada’s Jazz festival circuit in the summer of 2019. She was nominated for the Félix Prize for “Anglophone Show of the Year” at the 2020 ADISQ Gala and did her first shows in France and at the Winter Jazz Festival in New York City.

In 2021, she closed the final chapter of her album trilogy with Three Little Words, a call for reconciliation. The record received rave reviews in prestigious publications all around the country and in the world. It made the Polaris Short List, claimed the #1 spot for best-selling album in Quebec and hit #2 in Canada, with over three hundred media mentions worldwide. In 2022 she presented her show in front of a sold out Théâtre Maisonneuve during the Montreal International Jazz Festival and across Europe during the summer. She was invited to perform a double bill with Diana Krall at Jazz in Marciac and with Melody Gardot at Jazz en Ville in France.

Harmonizing is one of Dominique Fils-Aimé’s primary sources of inspiration. She loves to get lost in the process of creating because it brings her into a timeless state. In this state, she experiences a contentment that gives a magical quality to her work—undefinable, yet truly authentic.

Her fourth album entitled Our Roots Run Deep was released on Ensoul Records in September 2023 and is the start of a new trilogy. It has won the 2024 JUNO Award for “Vocal Jazz Album of the Year”, and the music video for the track ‘My Mind At Ease’ was nominated for Best

International R&B/Soul Video and Best Choreography in a Video at the UK Music Video Awards.

Dominique Fils-Aimé released her first single in French, “Moi je t’aime” on June 6th and is currently writing new songs for her upcoming album slated for release in 2026.
