thair is

a dynamic musical intersection of black, queer, and pop culture. He performs to dancing crowds that connect to his fun, catchy lyrics just as much as his quick beats and colorful synths. Stepping away from his alternative R&B band, Astro Samurai, Thair has taken his soaring vocals to speak to the underrepresented demographic he is a part of. Touching on the lightest to heaviest of topics in a single set, Thair brings the audience along for the ride with a smile on your face. Because at the end of the day, sometimes you just need to twerk it out with your friends.

What People Are Saying

 

A Pop Star is Born. 

-Britt Julious

— THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE

“Thair has shown he has the fresh skills and magnetic allure to hypnotize a crowd. That serves him well in his solo project, in which he makes huge, colorful collage pop.” -Leor Galil

— CHICAGO READER

“Thair has created to document experience as a queer person of color. The EP has moments of pride and joy and moments of fear and sadness, and it both an entertaining and important listen.”

— THE DELI MAG

BIG HEART, MASSIVE SOUND

With his next EP (sampled below) Thair aims to bring along his following from previous band, Astro Samurai (6.7k listeners on Spotify) for

Ready for any stage

Thair works hard to put together explosive shows with a full band to headline for venues as big as Schubas and Subterranean and small pop up solo shows all over the city.
