Singer (baritone)

Manchester

I am a Manchester-based artist blending Afrobeat, soul, and heartfelt lyricism to create unforgettable live moments. Whether it’s a wedding ceremony, corporate celebration, or private party, I bring a unique energy that connects with audiences and leaves a lasting impression. Music has always been my way of telling stories. I started performing in 2019 after years of writing and developing my sound influenced by my Nigerian heritage, gospel roots, and love for honest, emotive music. Since then, I’ve performed at some incredible events, including opening for BNXN (fka Buju) at Manchester Academy and being invited by the BBC to perform at Latitude Festival. My performances are tailored to the moment — whether you need a stripped-back acoustic set for a ceremony or a vibrant, upbeat show to get the room moving. I’ve played everything from intimate weddings to large-scale public events, always showing up with professionalism, flexibility, and passion. Every booking is personal to me. I take the time to understand your event, the vibe you’re after, and how I can help bring it to life through music. I offer a range of set options and can work solo or with live instrumentation depending on your preference. Whether you’re walking down the aisle, hosting a black-tie gala, or planning your next big celebration, I’d love to help soundtrack it with something soulful, uplifting, and completely unique to you. Let’s make it unforgettable.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Clients often say they love the soulful energy, emotional connection, and versatility I bring to every performance. Whether it’s an intimate ceremony or lively party, I tailor each set to the moment — creating a vibe that’s memorable, heartfelt, and uniquely personal.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

I’ve performed at Latitude Festival, Manchester Academy, Band on the Wall, and various other event spaces across the UK. While I’m new to wedding venues, I adapt seamlessly to any setting from large-scale stages to intimate gatherings ensuring a perfect fit for your event.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

Likes of Burna boy, Ed Sheeran and Adele, a few others but they stand out to me

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

One of my most high-profile gigs was performing at the Latitude Festival. I’ve also opened for Diamond Platnumz who is a high profile artist at Manchester Academy, both unforgettable experiences that showcased my sound to large, diverse audiences.

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

No problem at all — I’ll always try to be flexible. Minor timing changes (within an hour) are usually fine, but please let me know as early as possible so I can adjust accordingly. Significant changes may affect pricing or availability, but I’ll do my best to accommodate you.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes, I can provide a playlist or DJ-style iPod service before, between, and after my sets if needed. Just let me know your vibe or preferred genres, and I’ll tailor the music to keep the atmosphere going. This can be included or added for a small fee depending on your package.

How much time do you need to set up?

I typically need around 30–45 minutes to set up and soundcheck before the performance. If a larger setup is required (e.g. live instruments or PA system), I may need up to an hour. I’ll always arrive with plenty of time to ensure everything runs smoothly.

Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?

Absolutely! You're welcome to choose your favourite songs from my set list. I’m also happy to help curate a set that fits the mood of your event. If there’s a special song not on the list, let me know, I can usually learn it with enough notice.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, I bring all the essential equipment needed to perform, including a PA system and microphone if required. All I’ll need from you is access to a power source and a suitable performance space. Let me know in advance if your venue has its own setup.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

Yes, I’m happy to learn specific songs for your event! Whether it’s a first dance, ceremony entrance, or a personal favourite, just let me know in advance and I’ll make it part of the performance. One custom request is included free, additional songs may incur a small fee.
