TOKUNBO's Album #3

I'm TOKUNBO, singer songwriter, former singer of acoustic soul formation Tok Tok Tok and co-founder of the initiative #AirplayForArtists.

In this year of the pandemic I wrote my new album – no mean feat as a mother of a little one in lockdown! Now that the songs are written I would like to go to the studio with my band to record the album and bring it to you.

On this album I am introducing yet another facet of my very own Folk Noir style, light hearted, playful, then again also warm and earthy like a late summer day.

Songwriter Jazz meets Folk Pop.

If you like being carried away by music and if you love with beautiful melodies this is an album for you.

My songs are like short films. Peeping through the key hole I zoom onto scenes with a magnifying glass.

The songwriting of this album is heavily influenced by the art of the great songwriters of the 70s like the Carpenters and Carol King.

This music will be balsam to your soul.

A new era has come in culture and in the music industry.

With your support you are playing a huge part in preserving cultural diversity.

With your contribution you are enabling me, an independent artist to continue creating music for you and to continue working with my long time team of talented people who inspire me.

Together we are my label.

Producing an album of this quality is costly and it is important to me to pay my band and my team adequately.

Studio recordings, musician fees, photography and artwork but also manufacturing costs as well PR to get my songs on the radio and my music into the press, is what the starting level of this project will fund.

And the good news is that the vinyl edition is already covered by a wonderful and generous sponsor!

Anything that goes beyond the first funding goal will contribute to the production of music videos.

Album production entails:
- studio recordings
- musician fees
- mix & mastering
- photos & artwork
- manufacturing of cd & vinyl
- GEMA licensing fees
- PR
- music videos
