Star Quest alumnus out with Glory

Nigerian saxophonist and singer, Oyin Gbade, has released his gospel album: Glory: Holy songs from my father.’

The 2008 Star Quest contestant recently released a studio album with eight tracks across digital platforms.

The work was produced by Gbade with Tunde Alaka.

Speaking on his inspiration, Gbade, one of the sons of theatre art director, the late Jide Ogungbade, described the album as a great inspiration from God.

“I get inspiration from God. He is the beginning and progress of my inspiration,” he said.

Continuing, the graduate of Theatre Art and Music, said: “I used to do many other genres before now.

‘’But right now, my genre of music is simply gospel. I have been playing live jazz, Afrobeat, and hip-hop music in concerts shortly after Star Quest in 2008.

‘’I opened Felabration concerts with my band on several occasions. I used a lot of creative hands on this album, including Olawande Blessing, and co-played sax lines with Teesax.

Gbade said he relies on the Holy Spirit’s directives to collaborate with other local and international artists.
