Ammoye Turns the “Radio” On!


Ammoye, one of Canada’s most prominent Reggae songstresses, has turned “Radio” on with her hot new single of the same name!

Produced by award winning Kemar ‘Flava’ McGregor, and as part of the Club Dance Riddim line up, Ammoye’s single has been met with consistent support from DJ’s in the UK, Italy, the US, across the Caribbean, and her home country, Canada.

Savouring the silk in Ammoye’s voice, UK audiences have made the song one of the most requested, Italian listeners request the song weekly, as have Caribbean fans.  Building momentum in the US, “Radio” has been added to rotation on Tony Carr’s ‘This is Reggae Music’ on WPFW FM in Washington DC.  Boston’s Vibe 105.3 FM’s Jermaine Lawrence says the song “is one of his favourite songs on the riddim,” while Toronto’s King Turbo sound crew, hosts of ‘Morning Ride’ on 89.5 CIUT FM says “Ammoye definitely put the word ‘Love’ in Lover’s Rock with this chune!”

While the song enjoys positive feedback from fans and DJ’s alike, Ammoye prepares for an intense summer that includes performances for fans in Canada, the US and Europe.


About Ammoye:

Named after the Italian word for Love, Ammoye is to music what the stars are to the sky – beautiful.  The smoothness of her voice draws listeners in, and the power of her lyrics holds them as she effortlessly sings about Life, Love, and justice.

Ammoye is Canada's Female Artist of the Year!


If you had asked Ammoye 2 years ago what her musical life would look like in 2011, she wouldn’t have been able to give you an answer.  Today, she smiles humbly as the news continues to sink in that she is the 2011-2012 Female Artist of the Year.

The honor comes from the recently held Achievement Awards for Reggae music which took place in Toronto on Saturday June 4th, 2011.  “I am so happy,” said Ammoye.  “I’m happy that we were able to achieve this.  We did it as a team so this award is for all of us!”

Winning the award comes as a pre-curser to Ammoye’s busy schedule.  Her latest studio projects which are produced by Danny Maestro, Kemar ‘Flava’ McGregor and Tony Anthony, sees the singer give fans more one drop Reggae.  The artist also has a busy performance schedule as she takes the stage on three of Canada’s most high profile events being Jamaica Day – Toronto, Jambana and the Montreal Reggae Festival.  She also leaves for Serbia’s Exit Festival where she will perform for 150,000 fans over three days.  It doesn’t stop there!

Ammoye will be releasing an EP in September called ‘Bad Gyal’ which is being executive produced by Dubmatix.  The EP will be the prelude to her album which is scheduled to be released in 2012, and builds on the heels of the success of her album ‘Haffi Win’ which was produced by Ottawa’s Rise Ashen for the Balanced Records label.

Ammoye will be one of the featured artists performing at the NXNE event in Toronto at Lula Lounge on June 15th!  Fans can preview / play Ammoye's debut hit single "Lost Love" produced by Courtney John by clicking on the link below!
