-Tuesday 14 July 2015: To mark the French national holiday, young and promising French pianist-composer Chassol will perform from his 'Big Sun' album which follows the 'harmonisation of reality' method of his Ultrascores album, which combines music and video projections.

-Wednesday 15 July 2015: Young English singer-songwriter Tom Odell will be on stage, after the success of his first album, Long Way Down, was published in 2013. His tune Another Love has earned him recognition as a rising star of the British pop scene.

-Saturday 18 July 2015: Paulo Furtado, aka The Legendary Tigerman, will take to the stage to deliver a highly-anticipated performance. His hushed vocals, rock guitar riffs and electrifying, authentic blues stripped of any pomp, the concert is expected to mesmerise its audience.

-Saturday 25 July 2015: True to tradition, the OMNI festivities will be wrapped up with the Blues'n'Jazz festival, which this year will feature German funky jazz quartet Mo'Blow among many others.
