Sonic Boom Squad is the project Omar Hakim was always meant to lead. After four decades as one of the most sought-after drummers in the world—playing on records by Daft Punk, Sting, David Bowie, Miles Davis, and Foo Fighters—he's finally stepped out from behind the kit to front his own band. This isn't a side project. It's a rock‑funk‑pop band built around strong grooves, catchy songs, and the kind of energy that only comes from a lifetime on stage. Their debut album, Come Out To Play, is on the way, and the live show is a reminder that some musicians don't just play the music—they embody it.
