Omar

The UK’s greatest soul singer, Omar, returns to the Fox & Firkin for another incredible night. South East always represents for Omar! Often tagged ‘neo soul’ or even ‘acid jazz’ – the truth is Omar is his own one-man genre, as this latest album attests. With worldwide appeal spanning multiple generations Omar has worked with the likes of Stevie Wonder, Lamont Dozier, the late Angie Stone, Leon Ware, Robert Glasper and Erykah Badu just to name a few.
