Omine

Ominé is one of South Florida’s most prolific and original female musicians. She has been an intricate part of Miami’s local music scene -supporting ,shaping , guiding and creating history.

Ominé’s soulful yet rocking singing style captivates you from the very first note, paired with raw precision guitar playing Ominé’s live performances are delivered with an intense sexy yet sweet powerful edge .Expect to sing along and participate in an Ominé show, you will smile and walk away with a song or two stuck in your head. Influenced by Classic Rock, BEBOP JAZZ, Old School Blues and Folk- she has sculpted and perfected her own unique style of song writing and guitar playing. She simply tells you in her songs with- in your face lyrics that she is not “Your Average Everyday Apple Pie” but she does have a sweet side- if you know her well.

Born to a musical family she is the daughter of the late jazz legend tenor saxophonist Allen Eager. Her parents knew early on that she was a musical driving force not to be taken lightly. Her father put a guitar in her hand at the young age of 9, and her mother begged the music school teacher to allow her to take guitar lessons, this wonderful teacher named Edward Gross said “ Her hands are too small and will never reach the frets” but he gave Ominé a chance. His teachings gave Ominé the tools to learn and perfect her craft of playing and song writing. She began writing her own songs about real life issues with a sensative folk style. This will become Ominé’s staple as a songwriter, her writing is influenced by her upbringing and current topical issues. She quickly became accustomed to performing in front of live audiences, starting with singing and playing every Saturday & Sunday in a church choir she attended. Ominé learned to sing in Spanish and play piano, upright bass and guitar. There she learned how to harmonize , play with a band and practice her instruments every day , she was the youngest member.

Along with music Ominé is extremely dedicated and passionate about her community service. She has been involved locally and nationally with such organizations as:
Musicians on Call, Local Impact, Camillus House, The Kristie House, Kon Bit and ACT 4 TIBET. Ominé believes in the healing power of music and is always giving back to her community with love and compassion. Increasing the Peace through Music is a sticker on her guitar case and she walks the walk.
Ominé has been performing locally and nationally for over 20 years. She can be seen solo acoustic or with her full rocking band regularly in South Florida’s “Legendary Tobacco Road”, Transit Lounge, Van Dyke's, Churchills, Titanic Brewery, Bardot, Gibson Showroom, Luna Star Café, The Poorhouse.
