Omar Souleyman (Arabic: عمر سليمان) is a Syrian Arab Singer from the village of Tell Tamer near the city of Ra's al-'Ayn on the Syria–Turkey border. He started his career as a part-time wedding singer in his native al-Hasakah Governorate, and while he is a Sunni Arab, he emphasises the influence its culturally diverse milieu has had on his style: "My music is from the community I come from – the Kurdish, the Ashuri, the Arabic, they're all in this community. Even Turkish because it's so near, it's just across the border."
