Ondara has performed on NPR's Tiny Desk and CBS This Morning: Saturday. Tales of America received a nomination for Best Americana Album at the 62nd Grammy Awards and Ondara received a nod for Best Emerging Act at the 2019 Americana Awards. Ondara grew up in Nairobi, Kenya listening to American alt-rock. At an early age he fell in love with the music of Bob Dylan and moved to Minneapolis in 2013 to pursue a career as a singer and songwriter. He began making his way in the local music scene, continually writing songs about what he saw, felt and experienced in a place far different from home. Since then, he has toured extensively including sold out European performances, a completely sold out headlining U.S. tour, appearances at festivals nationwide including Newport Folk Festival, and opened for the likes of The Lumineers, First Aid Kit, Neil Young, The Head & The Heart, and more.

One of the best live performances I have seen in years. He played the entire Tales of America album and it was absolutely brilliant. If you ever get a chance to see this artist live I recommend that you do not pass up the opportunity. His performance was passionate, mesmerizing and a one of a kind experience.
