Oscar and the Wolf @ Barasti

Oscar and the Wolf is the project of Max Colombie where he creates a dazzling and shimmering fusion of contemporary R&B with European electro-pop sensibility. The project started in 2012 and broke through in 2014 with its platinum-selling debut album Entity which quickly jettisoned Colombie to superstar status.

This fast rise to fame saw him selling out arenas in Belgium, The Netherlands, and Turkey; headlining festival slots ahead of acts such as Muse, Rihanna, and LCD Soundsystem; whilst amassing a huge Middle Eastern fanbase across Turkey, Egypt, Israel & Iran, as well as in France, Switzerland, Germany & the Eastern European markets. This Summer, Oscar and the Wolf played at Lowlands and headlined Pukkelpop. He just released his new single ‘Warrior’ and he’s currently touring the EU.

Saturday, May 6, 7pm. Tickets start from AED200. Find out more here
