Miel Azevedo is a nonbinary artist and musician hailing from Toronto who is currently based in Montreal. Their musicianship is heavily informed by their introduction to jazz and funk by life mentor and friend Dave Clark (Rheostatics) in Toronto. Dave keeps alive the essence of music and why we play it for so many youth he works with. After equipping Miel with the basics of recording, Miel went on to produce their own music, support emerging artists, and is currently working as a live sound engineer in Montreal. Mostly self-taught, Miel recorded and produced their debut album Beginnings which was released in 2021. The songs have unexpected changes but mostly adhere to a pop song form with a jazz feel and a warm live band sound.
