Artist Info

Omar's Hat

Omar's Hat started on the corner of 45th and Locust when a group of musicians gathered in a place called Meskerem to spark a jam that’s never stopped since. This music is our love for Philadelphia, for a history of sounds that is always expanding, never settling. Our music is for Omar, whose dance never quit reminding us that each day is to be treasured; that you can always find magic in the everyday. This music is for you, come join in. All creative attitudes are welcomed and celebrated. We thank you for being a part of the vibe.

Members of Omar's Hat have worked with a wide variety of artists including Mary J. Blige, Solange, Tye Tribbet, Jermaine Holmes, Frank McComb, The Village People, The Force MDs, Maysa, Sun Ra Arkestra, Immanuel Wilkins, Ari Hoenig, George "Spanky" McCurdy, Robert "Sput" Searight, DOMi, STOUT, Peter Collins, Laurin Talese, The Philly Pops, Arnetta Johnson, Chill Moody, and many more. Most recently, members of the collective have toured with The Stylistics, Kindred the Family Soul, Keiyaa, Ivy Sole and Orion Sun. Last year, the collective released the single "On Our Way" on all streaming platforms and are currently working on their debut album.
