Hide AdThe singer-songwriter, who has a ‘soulful voice’, is hoping her songs make ‘people feel something’.
Tinuke said: “Having this EP released is a major achievement and I am so thankful to everyone who worked so hard on it.
“We spent long days and nights trying to make sure everything was just right, it’s my first project and I hope each song makes people feel something as it did for me. I couldn’t have asked for better people to work with.”
Tony Platt, who taught Tinuke at the University of Northampton and has worked with the likes of AC/DC, The Rolling Stones and Bob Marley, is now tipping the musician for success in the industry.

Hide AdThe associate lecturer said: “I have every confidence Tinuke will find success in the music industry – hopefully sooner rather than later.
“I have had the pleasure of working with Tinuke on a number of occasions over the last couple of years.
“She is a consummate professional and her attention to detail is very refreshing – ‘getting it right’ is far more important to her than just ‘getting it done’.
“Her songs, and especially her lyrics, are beautifully crafted to show off her superb voice – so soulful – she really feels the emotions she sings about.”
