ABOUT TUNDE ESHO
Born on January 7, 1991, Tunde Esho lived in a house jam
packed with music so much that at the age of 5 he was thrown into the choir in
the church and in primary school. His aunties and uncles who were all
interested in music also helped shape Tunde as an artist and a person.
Tunde started taking music seriously after turning 15 but
went into Gangsta Rap, which was popular at the time. At this time his father
was the Pastor of a Church. At this stage in his life, he was living two lives,
a Christian at home in front of his family and a thug when with his friends.
This went on for two years. During that period he hooked up with a few boys,
they started a rap group and called themselves "The Bandits", they
made a couple of songs together and he also released a solo mixtape. In the summer of 2008 he went to a CAC crusade with his church in Dublin, Ireland and
that was where he rededicated his life to Christ. A few weeks later he left the
group and left music until the next summer. In July 2009 Tunde came back into
the music scene and this time around he was talking about his relationship with
God and the struggles he has been facing in his life.
On the 29th of November 2009, he released a mixtape titled
"Stronger" which was up for free download. In that same year he
featured on Chris Kabs debut album, "Conversation" on the song
"My Days" and also Gospo Remix’s sophomore album "Goin
Gospo" on the song "Happy Day".
The highlight of 2009 was performing at the Megafest with
artists like Sonnie Badu, Sammie Okposo, Mike Aremu and many more. Since that
time he has since released several promo songs and performed in a lot of places
around Ireland.
On the 4th of September 2010, the EP titled "Stand
Out" was realeased to the public and has been getting good reviews ever
since with the biggest songs being "Saved by the Blood" and "Go
Mad".
Since then Tunde Esho has toured Ireland on the Stand Out
tour, going to places like, Limerick, Wexford, Athlone, Bray and also doing a
live show in Dublin. His EP is making a positive impact on his community and worldwide.
