 “Soulman O’Gaia has an uncanny ability to engage the very soul of an audience. An incredible performer with a wonderful energy…” Sandy McCutcheon ABC Radio “Colourful, energetic, exotic and talented, Soulman has warmed the hearts of many with his high voltage smile, incorrigible presence and mesmerizing performances….” Mandy Nolan Seven Entertainment Guide Soulman O’Gaia comes via Jamaica and England to land finally in Australia. A towering 6 foot 5 inches tall, he is a fluent raconteur spreading feel-good vibes in high energy performances around the country. Beginning in the depths of London’s Underground Subways, he honed his skills in the volatile world of workingmen’s pubs, clubs and bars across Europe, England and Australia. O’Gaia has become a one-of-a-kind singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist, and a classic tunesmith. His latest release is the uplifting and diverse “Free at Last” CD. Souls dynamic hard-driving rhythms on guitar move from toe tapping funk and blues, to gutsy rock’n’roll, journeying on through folksy balladeering all the way to Caribbean reggae. All told his big voice reaching out with an awesome range and clarity is his most powerful calling card. When Soulman sings you see the intensity of emotion on his face, the joy in his smile, and the soulful stirring of the gospel blues roots of his ancestral lineage. Soul drew capacity crowds at each of his 5 Woodford performances this year, has held the stage with Archie Roach, John Butler, Xavier Rudd and Pete Murray. Also featured on The Fatherhood CD’s and DVD’s with these and other iconic Australian artists.
