Welcome to the music of Olmar
In 2008 Maren Beljan (Seelenküche, Digital Riot) and Oliver Jahn (Los Banditos, Airtramp) came together to enrich a vernissage with an appropriate concert. This recital lead to a deep and sensuous musical symbiosis that was a moving and impressing experience for the audience. Olmar was born. Many successful shows followed this event.
In following autumn, the flutist Stephan Hepper (Seelenküche, Dandy Desmond Doping Tour) joined the group and completed the duo with his filigree and virtuosic style of playing. Already in November, the group started to produce their first album "Relations".
Olmar & The Tass Brothers
In spring 2009, the trio went to Egypt to meet the genius Tass-Brothers and Ramy Samir founding an intercultural Jazz-World-Music project named "Olmar & The Tass Brothers".
Together, they developed a special musical fusion by connecting the depth of Olmar with the jazzy arabic rhythms of the Tass Brothers and Ramy Samir - Olmars ambitious lyrics (William Blake, Oscar Wilde etc.) met the light and impulsive grooves of the Tass Brothers and Ramy creating an unique musical experience.
