Acclaimed UK soul innovator Omar Lyefook MBE will perform two rare and intimate hometown performances, as part of his 40th anniversary celebrations as a recording artist.

Since his breakthrough hit ‘There’s Nothing Like This’ (1990), Omar has established himself as one of Britain’s most distinctive voices, collaborating with luminaries including Stevie Wonder, Erykah Badu, Robert Glasper, Angie Stone, Paul Weller, and Giggs.

His latest release, ‘Brighter The Days’, praised as his most accomplished to date, highlights a career defined by reinvention, depth, and timeless artistry, and showcases his trademark sound blending soul, funk, jazz, and orchestral richness.

🌱 Fri 30th Support: FARI

FARI is a Soul artist with a mesmerising twist. Born in Zimbabwe and based in Brighton, she blends Neo-Soul, R&B, and live looping to create a contemporary and exciting fusion of sound. Her lyrics explore themes of jealousy, anger, and religion, drawing influence from Kimbra, Bobby McFerrin, and Jacob Collier.

🌱 Sat 31st Support: Victoria Port

Victoria’s sound epitomises today’s British Neo-Soul aesthetic; a generous and warm helping of vintage symphonic Soul with sprinkles of modernism - akin to Ronson-era Amy Winehouse, and to contemporary artists such as SAULT and Jungle. Gilles Peterson recently featured her live on air, and has tipped her as “an exciting emerging new artist”.
