News

         January 02 2012

Ready to start the new year right with a bay area reggae showcase at Pier 23 in San Francisco on Saturday January 07 2012. This is our first headliner show at Pier 23 and we are honored to be sharing the stage with our good friend Elias Gibson and also Militia Of Love.

Many things are in the works for 2012, including the completion of the long awaited album. Lots of new material that has never been performed live is still being developed and fine tuned. We are going to start a new street team development project as well, to help spread the word about Omani.

Your continued support is graciously appreciated and we hope to meet all your expectations and make you feel good and maybe even get you thinking about how we can all make this world a better place.

One Love

What does "OMANI" mean?

"OMANI" comes from the first three seed syllable sounds of the compassion mantra:
Om Mani Padme Hum

These syllable sounds are pleasant to speak and compliment the music and the message.

Speaking the syllable sounds is said to guide one on the path to enlightenment.
OM: purifies the neurotic attachment to bliss and pride.
MA: helps perfect the practice of pure ethics.
NI: helps achieve perfection in the practice of tolerance and patience.
