Cookin' in the Stu
March 2026
In 2026, Omar Rudberg has been heavily focused on recording his third studio album, tentatively titled "OR2" on some music platforms. Following the release of his singles "Dying" and "I'm Not a Boy" in late 2025, his studio sessions in early 2026 have been centered on finishing this full-length project.
Studio & Production Updates
- Location & Collaborators: In February and March 2026, Omar shared updates from the studio with the caption "Let me cook guys let me cook". He has been seen working in Stockholm and Los Angeles, notably collaborating with producer JHart (James Abrahart).
- Recording Progress: As of March 2026, fan accounts and studio snippets indicate he is in the "finishing" stages of the album. Posts from his team suggest the sessions involve a mix of high-energy "Latin vibes" and cinematic, vulnerable tracks similar to his recent single "Dying".
- Teasers: Omar has teased that "2026 already sounds exciting" via his official Instagram, specifically linking his studio time to the upcoming year's music rollout.
Confirmed 2026 Performances
While the studio is his primary focus, several live appearances are scheduled for later in the year where new material is expected to be debuted:
- Rainbow Festival (Cologne): June 27, 2026.
The new music produced in these 2026 sessions is expected to lead into a larger global tour following the album's release later this year.
