Omar Espinosa was born in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Espinosa participated in several bands before Escape The Fate.
In 2004, he was asked to be lead guitarist in the post-hardcore band Lovehatehero. He left the same year to be a part of Escape the Fate, who became known in the local Nevada scene very soon after.
On September 26, 2006, the band released their first album, Dying Is Your Latest Fashion, on Epitaph Records.
In late 2007, during the Black On Black Tour with Blessthefall, Espinosa left Escape The Fate. According to an interview conducted by Buzznet, Ronnie Radke stated that Omar left the band after a fight with the band's bassist, Max Green, as well as other personal issues.
After, leaving Escape The Fate, he wrote and recorded a few songs with the band The Black and White City.
Later, Omar joined the band Perfect Like Me, which he left in 2010, after recording the EP "She's Poison", as a partial withdrawal from music and out of devotion to his family.
According to his MySpace page, Espinosa has produced bands such as Sky Diamonds City.[1]
In 2011, Espinosa co-wrote two songs with the band Falling in Reverse. Falling in Reverse is fronted by Espinosa's friend and former bandmate from Escape The Fate, Ronnie Radke. The songs he contributed to are Don't Mess with Ouija Boards and Goodbye Graceful[2] which appear on the album The Drug In Me Is You. The album was released on July 26, 2011.
