Ally Fiola is a Nova Scotian saxophonist, film composer, and bandleader of the groove-based jazz ensemble, The Next Quest. Quirky melodies combined with joyous grooves and unexpected twists and turns, The Next Quest is inspired by funk, soul, and New Orleans brass band. As an experienced composer, Ally connects to a wide-range of listeners with music that is emotionally charged, infused with personality yet widely accessible. “Thoughts of Home”, an original composition from her latest album, was nominated for the 2022 Marvin Hamlisch International Music Awards in the jazz category.Ally’s recently released original jazz album, Interblaze, features 3x Grammy-winning saxophonist Jeff Coffin (Dave Matthews Band, Bela Fleck and the Flecktones), Grammy-winning keyboardist Glenn Patscha (Bonnie Raitt), Kurdish guitarist Shvan Kaban, and many top-tier Nova Scotian musicians. The full-length album considers themes of grief, wonder, fear, and passion through the exploration of one’s inner fire. With a background including the Banff Centre for Arts & Creativity and performances in London and France, Ally’s artistry resonates worldwide, connecting diverse audiences through her expressive music.
