EXPERIENCE
Jasmin Uglow, known simply as Jasmin, was born in Montreal, one of Canada’s cultural capitals. Her musical journey began in the church, where she first discovered her voice as a young gospel singer. Surrounded by choirs and musicians, including her own parents, she learned early the power of music to uplift, inspire, and connect. Those formative experiences shaped her into a confident lead vocalist, gracing church stages, concert halls, and weddings, while developing a love for performance that continues to this day.
Now based in Toronto, Jasmin contributes to Canadian culture as a songwriter, vocalist, and co-producer, known for her versatility across gospel, jazz, blues, R&B, soul and cultural music. Her ability to adapt, compose, and collaborate has refined her artistry and established her as a dynamic performer who thrives on exploring new musical possibilities with fellow musicians.

Richard Uglow, born in Toronto, began playing classical piano at the age of seven, but it was in his teenage years, under the mentorship of jazz pianist Ted Moses, that he truly found his voice as a musician. Moses not only guided him in jazz performance but also nurtured his skills in composition and arranging, setting the foundation for a lifelong career in music.
Richard’s first recognition came in high school when he earned his first $100 award at the Canadian Stage Band Festival for a jazz combo composition. By nineteen, he was performing professionally across Toronto, primarily in R&B and Top 40 bands, gaining experience and honing his versatility on stage.
Over the past three decades, Richard has established himself as a seasoned pianist, composer, and collaborator. He has played and recorded with a wide range of artists, including Hell + High Water, The Mighty Pope, Jane Child, 3 Plus 3, Morris Albert, Errol Star, Joe Johnson, J. Douglas, and his wife, vocalist Jazsmin Uglow.
With more than 30 years of professional experience, Richard continues to bring passion, creativity, and technical excellence to every performance.
