Contemporary music star and brain behind SBLive band, Seun Bankole, has taken on the global stage.
The Nigerian multiple award-winning cross-over music star, fondly called SBLive, was on a tour of some major US cities with opening concerts in Maryland, Indianapolis, Rhode Island, Boston, and Atlanta. The mostly sold-out concerts held between May and June also saw SBLive performed in cities like Houston, Dallas, New York, and Chicago.
He, however, returned to Nigeria briefly for some private engagements in Nigeria.
The music star is scheduled to return by July ending to resume the tour with scheduled concerts in California, Las Vegas, North Carolina, New Jersey, Minnesota, and Pennsylvania.
As one of the most extremely busy musicians, SB Live will be having his first United Kingdom tour in September and a Canadian tour in November.
SBLive who couldn’t hide his excitement at taking on the global stages said: “It’s so delightful to see the kind of acceptance my band is getting during this American tour. We’ve had so much from our US fans so I’m super excited to visit and play there while I am looking forward to thrilling African music lovers in the UK and Canada later in the year.”
The singer performs mostly original works that are firmly rooted in the African musical origins of Afrobeat, Afro-hip-hop, and Highlife.
