INGIA brings Afro-Fusion, Jazz, Neo-Soul, R&B, and Gospel to Breakout West 2026, performing a reimagined live set of her debut EP Genesis plus her new single In Reflection.

In Reflection is yours now!
INGIA is a South Sudanese Canadian vocalist and saxophonist blending Afro-Fusion, Jazz, R&B, Neo-Soul and Gospel into a sound that's bold, soulful, and deeply rooted. Her music is a love letter to where she comes from, carrying her roots, her voice, and her horn into every note. Since releasing her debut single "INGIA" and EP “Genesis” in 2025, she's taken the stage across Winnipeg and now beyond, having been selected to showcase at Breakout West in Victoria, BC, her first performance outside the city with hopes of more opportunities to perform nationally ahead. Intention, Nurture, Gratitude, Inspiration, Amplify; this is INGIA.

Following the performances, connect with fellow Black music makers, artists, music companies, labels, venues, festivals, and industry professionals at the community mixer. Share ideas, build relationships, exchange knowledge, and make meaningful career connections. Everyone is welcome!
