Montreal-based Haitian sister music duo and their band singing beautiful harmony in a Haitian and Creole-influenced soul and jazz style. Morgan Hanna is a rising star in the Edmonton Jazz scene, quickly making a name for herself in the local jazz world. 

Bel and Quinn
Accompanied by the unmistakable sound of Quinn's electric guitar, women-led ensemble Bel and Quinn entice the audience with their captivating harmonies. The two sisters of Haitian origin sing in French, Creole, and English, bringing to life electrifying music that fuses Haitian rhythms with jazz and soul. The themes of self-acceptance, mental health and healing resonate with music lovers and envelop them with a comforting feeling.

Bel writes the lyrics while Quinn composes and arranges the original pieces brilliantly, in addition to establishing himself as a talented jazz guitarist. Committed to promoting female artists, the duo surrounds itself with some of Canada’s most talented musicians, including award-winning drummer Salin Cheewapansri, award-winning saxophonist Beth McKenna, and well-known tenor saxophonist Marie-Josée Frigon as well as trumpeter Josiane Rouette.

Morgan Hanna
Dubbed “your favorite guitar player’s favorite guitar player”, Morgan Hanna is quickly making a name for herself. Born and raised in the Bahamas and currently based in Edmonton, she recently graduated from MacEwan University’s Bachelor of Music program. Engrossed by Black music and shaped by the musical stylings of Michael Jackson, Prince, and Stevie Wonder, Morgan’s playing replicates a deep and meaningful conversation, skipping the small talk and getting to the heart of the matter.
