Jamile - Pursuit of a Pulse (2025) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

Pursuit of a Pulse is the endless quest for music that makes one’s heart race—the ceaseless life-affirming pulse that emerges when music seeps deep into one’s pores.

Reverencing composers that are still alive and/or have been pivotal innovators of their times, Jamile invokes both the heartbeat of those still with us, and the ancestral pulse that provides guidance, making a clear statement that the jazz art form lives on through the footsteps of those who choose to walk along its path and carve new trails.

Born and raised in Brazil, but thriving in New York, Jamile's artistry includes a love of language, a closeness with genre, a deep feeling for style—and a demand to throw all of these aside for the pleasures of transcendence.

A vocalist with a clear identity who thrives on the plurality of her upbringing and abilities, Jamile’s voice is one of a kind. Her versatility and virtuosity often lead her on obsessive quests—particularly for songs that resonate with her on a spiritual level, resulting in an extensive collection of pieces rarely performed. The selections on this album reflect that lifelong chase, and the band, consisting of brilliant figures from the New York City jazz scene, executes each song with an ear for its inner meaning.
