Soul Jam Dubai is a one-off mini music festival promising a fun night of dancing, funky tunes and fun times.
The Irish Village is bringing few massive artists of the genre together on stage in Dubai for the first time. Headlining the night is American R&B and Soul legend Alexander O’Neal – his biggest claim to fame being the 1987 single “Criticize” which rocketed to the number four spot on the UK singles chart upon release, cementing him as a household name.
Next up is UK soul man Omar, who music aficionados will recognise as the father of neo soul. His debut single “There’s Nothing Like This” reached number 14 on the UK Singles Charts in 1991 and he’s since gone on to work with the likes of Stevie Wonder, releasing his eighth studio album Love In Beats earlier this year.
Mica Paris is one of the UK’s most respected female singers with a career full of Top 10 hit singles and albums worldwide. The range, power, and sheer soulfulness of Mica Paris’ singing made an immediate impact on the UK music scene in 1988 when she released her debut, platinum-selling album, ‘So Good’ from which she had her first top ten hit, ‘My One Temptation’.
Rounding out this stellar lineup is none other than ’80s soul diva Jaki Graham. The three-time Grammy-nominated singer had a massive hit in 1985 alongside David Graham “Could It Be I’m Falling In Love”.
The night is set to feature a unique quartet of acts that will bring the house down with their power and magnetising performances.
