With a prolific career spanning nearly 20 years since his formative years in Detroit, Omar-S has earned himself legend status alongside fellow Detroit names Moodymann, Theo Parrish, Inner-City, Marcellus Pittman, and Rick Wilhite.

Known for his signature compositions of crunchy analog drums, soulful jazz-tipped samples, and rich vocal cuts, this is Omar-S’s first time back in Australia after three years away from our shores. It’s set to be the perfect open-air party to kick off the summer season.
