Tonye Aganaba and The Foundations
Event Description
TonyeHuman, Singer, Songwriter.
Tonye Aganaba considers herself a citizen of the universe, undefined by geographical, cultural or stylistic boundaries. Its a distinction that suits her well, for a woman who has lived and performed all around the globe.
Tonye's infectious spirit and lush voice ooze with the undeniable essence of love, tenderness and togetherness, the very spirit which infects her favourite albums from childhood. As her family moved from one small town to the next, it was artists like Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston who were her steadfast friends. They not only taught her how to sing and to move, but how to live creatively, and how to express herself honestly through the universal language of music.
Tonye's style is the worldly culmination of a life lived in pursuit of finding her true artistic voice. And now, with the release of her EP Solar Twin, Tonye has found her musical home, a place she feels most comfortable. Its a collection of songs that best express who shes always been. Tonye writes all of her own music, but its with her band that their classic, soul infused R&B has found their form. Her pure, lush voice dances across addictive melodies, flowing with an undeniable groove, touched by hip hop flourishes that even the most pop centric purist cant deny. A unique blend of sounds, experiences and artistry, brought to life through engaging, dynamic and in demand live performances.
