On May 15, Bashiri Asad arrives at The Olympic Theater for a one-night-only performance that is both concert and catharsis.

They call him the “Everyday Soul Singer,” and once you hear him, you’ll understand why. Bashiri doesn't just sing at you, he sings with you. Love, heartbreak, growth, those quiet thoughts you don’t always say out loud… it’s all in there. The kind of music that sits with you not just for the night, but long after.

Coming through with selections from The Way We Are, his latest project with Indianapolis collective Be On It, Bashiri brings smooth R&B, live instrumentation, and a whole lot of truth in every note.

And for this market? This kind of night doesn’t come around often.

So whether you’re sliding through with your person, your crew, or just pulling up solo, come ready to feel something real.

Doors at 7PM. Show at 8PM. One night only.
