Osmar is African-Cuban and came to the States when he was 11 years old. In 1999, his family settled in Holyoke, MA where they ran into the Bah#225;'#237; Faith. Osmar became a Bah#225;'#237; after his family moved to the Midwest and he stayed behind to attend Holyoke Community College. After posting the interview Osmar emailed me a demo of his band.
