“So Good” Omar Apollo
First-generation Mexican-American singer Omar Apollo, has shared a new video, for his latest single “So Good.” The clip, was directed by Kevin Lombardo, and finds Apollo as the lead protagonist in an 80’s technicolored dance party. As the crowd begins to rave up around him, the video fades down and Apollo reappears in headphones. The singer just dreaming about life as a rockstar. The video is the third from his latest EP Friends, following “Trouble” and “Ashamed,” and arrives in the midst of his North American tour. He’s set to play Toronto, New York, and Philadelphia before heading off to Europe. Remaining tickets are available here.
Friends, Omar Apollo’s current release fluidly channels elements of jazz, R&B, funk, alternative, soul and pop music through his own lens, cementing his stance as one of 2019’s breakout stars. After introducing himself in 2018 with his debut EP Stereo, Apollo was announced by Youtube as part of this year’s Foundry international artist development program, placing him alongside alumni including Cuco, ROSALÍA, Gunna, Chloe X Halle, and Dua Lipa.
