Omar Souleyman creates scorching Middle Eastern dance music guaranteed to make you move. Fusing the traditional sounds of Dabke folk dancing with Arabic pop melodies and searing synths, Souleyman brings a Syrian street party to The Aurora. With keyboard accompaniment, he stalks the stage with a steadfast gaze, delivering robust vocals to a relentless beat and whipping all and sundry into an unabashed frenzy.
Souleyman’s sound is completely infectious as he claps and smiles his way through a blistering set of club-friendly Arabic techno.
