About
Hi, I’m Quinn Bélice, a jazz guitarist, composer, arranger, singer and bandleader from Montreal, Quebec. I studied jazz guitar at Université de Montréal on a $9,000 Sophie Desmarais grant. I am proud to be among the program’s few women in 35 years. I’m dedicated to exploring jazz, Haitian Konpa, and world music, and I’m actively growing my craft as a performer and creator.
My ongoing project, Bel and Quinn, brings together a remarkable ensemble of women musicians. We released the album Donte Sann Yo (2023), which earned a JUNO nomination for Global Music Album of the Year in 2024. This work honors my Haitian heritage and reflects my love of composing and arranging for diverse ensembles. I’m excited by opportunities to contribute as a substitute guitarist and to continue growing as a guitarist, composer, and bandleader.
