Ramel Bautista (Guitar/ Vocals):

Ramel Bautista is a multi-instrumentalist musician with his foot in a wide array of genres. From relaxing Bossa Nova and mellow R&B to eclectic blues and folk, Ramel tries to hit all aspects of music while keeping his signature percussive fingerstyle approach to his music. Whether it’s co-writing with singer-songwriters around Ottawa, teaching guitar at the Manotick School of Music or playing background music at Tamis Cafe, Ramel seeks emotion as the heart of his music and wants his listeners to feel that same tug; that same pull to such a wonderful art form.
