Omar Sharif

Omar Sharif is a member of Groove Stu. Channeling influences such as The Isley Brothers, Earth Wind and Fire, Prince, and Mint Condition, this band brings back the art of real vocals and live instrumentation. A self-contained group of writers, producers, and performers, Groove Stu has been sharing their gift of music on stages throughout the world since 1999. In 2003, Groove Stu released it's first album, Authentic 4.10 Sessions, independently to critical acclaim. Not content to play it safe, GS chose to showcase it's versatility by making an album that crossed several genres including Hip Hop, Soul, Jazz, and Reggae. 

With the completion of the album, GS sought out to promote the  product by doing what they do best. Performing live. GS has shared  stages with such acts as Frankie Beverly and Maze, Boyz II Men, Erykah  Badu, Mint Condition, Jeffrey Osborne, Eric Roberson, Raheem DeVaughn  and Kindred the Family Soul to name a few. In 2006 they released their  live concert DVD, Live and Direct From Baltimore. GS took a few years  off from performing to create their sophomore album Artofficial  Substance, released in 2012. They were nominated for Duo and Group of  the year for the 2012 Soultracks Readers Choice Awards. 

They also  received three nominations for the Washington Area Music Awards. Groove  Stu is preparing for the 2021 release of their new album. The album  contains a wealth of material drawn from the personal life experiences  of each member. Recognizing a lack of substance in today's music, GS  felt compelled to write lyrics of self-reflection and love meant to  inspire and motivate. Whether live or on record, Groove Stu continues in  the tradition of legendary artists of the past whose music allowed you  to get your groove on but also delivered a message in the process.
