Hailing from Orange regional NSW, JamarzOnMarz is a 22-year-old queer rapper and saxophonist of Kenyan and Sri Lankan-Tamil heritage. At 22 years of age, the Sydney-based artist has soared to new heights, performing with megastar Solange, in her band, for four sold-out shows at the Sydney Opera House. The star's iconic track "Don't Touch My Hair" influenced JamarzOnMarz's anti-discrimination campaign to stop Australian Independent schools from restricting Black students' afro-textured hair and protective styles. Last year saw the trailblazer feature on ABC TV’s The Recording Studio, where he collaborated with Horrorshow to produce a song as a gift for his former high school teacher who helped him reconcile with his identity. Since bursting onto the scene, JamarzOnMarz has lit up iconic venues like Sydney Mardi Gras, Riverstage Brisbane, and the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games. His versatility has allowed him to share line-ups with Australian stars Courtney Act, Marcia Hines, Mallrat, and San Cisco, as well as supporting Tuka (Thundamentals) and UK grime rapper Ocean Wisdom.
