Omar Apollo - 1 p.m. - 1:45 p.m.

Omar Velasco, who is now more well-known as Omar Apollo, was born in Guadalajara, Mexico but decided to flee and move to America with his Dad at age 23 to pursue a career in music and avoid gang violence. After struggling with his family to stay afloat, he is now able to financially support them through his success in the music industry. And that means the absolute world to him. He taught himself to play guitar, sing and produce at a young age and over the past year all of that effort has finally paid off. Since the release of his first EP, Stereo, he has toured all around the country! His EP is a confident, bilingual collection of homemade psych-pop. Check out this rising star as he opens the Bud Light Stage on Day 2.
