KETSMY

Ketsmy is an up-and-coming Montreal singer-songwriter. Coming from a family originally from Haiti, he mixes styles and languages. Sailing between French, Creole and English, his poignant lyrics denounce the social injustice afflicting racialized people. All delivered with an unmistakable Soul voice, backed by hard-hitting, gripping rhythms. He describes his style as AFROBLUES, navigating listeners between BluesRock, Hip-Hop and Afrobeats. On May 18, 2022, Ketsmy unveiled his first album, MELANIN NEWS. Since then, he has released a string of singles and collaborated with various artists: JEAN L’OCÉAN, CATBOOT, FOVELLE. On April 28, 2022, Ketsmy was awarded the Prix du public by the Conseil des arts de Montréal at the 15th Syli d’Or de la musique de monde gala, presented by Les Productions Nuits d’Afrique.
