SAN DIEGO, CA- San Diego’s Waterfront Park thrummed with energy as Omar Apollo took center stage at the inaugural Bleached Fest. And if the crowd’s raucous response was any indicator, San Diego and Apollo are a match forged in musical heaven.

His style was unapologetically him: edgy with a vintage nod. The glimpse of skin under his cropped top juxtaposed with baggy cargos captured the audience’s gaze and held it. And the crowd, a diverse mix of identities, proved Apollo’s music speaks across boundaries. His tunes weren’t just heard; they resonated, echoing the heartbeats of many.

The evening’s highlight? Apollo’s candid shout to the audience: “How many homosexuals are here?” The roar that followed was nothing short of electrifying, underscoring the bond he shares with the LGBTQ+ community.

Teasing banter with a fan segued seamlessly into the rhythmic allure his most recent single “3 Boys.” But the climax was undeniably the communal outpouring during “Evergreen.” It was more than a sing-along; it was a shared emotional journey.
