Omari Banks

“He sounds like a cross between Bob Marley and Bob Dylan.” NY Times

Tickets: $30

Born and raised on the beautiful island of Anguilla, in the British Caribbean, Omari Banks found his musical calling at the tender age of five when he first took the stage in Milan, Italy to sing alongside his father, Bankie Banx.

Omari’s passion for music never waned and in 2010 Omari made the decision to return to his first love: music, finding inspiration through an eclectic array of music genres including traditional Jamaican Reggae accentuated with Rock and Blues backbeats. His style of music has an adult contemporary fusion that blends seamlessly with Lovers Rock and RnB.

Fresh from completing a residency at Salisbury University, Omari is now bringing his voice that Vibe Magazine calls as “calming as chamomile” and his “charisma that bubbles like a champagne toast” to the intimate Stoltz stage!
