Mavin Record label’s artiste and Don Jazzy’s protégé, John Drille lands on the music scene with a peculiar folk sound.
Unperturbed by the recent clichè offerings of his peers in music, he creates a comfortable niche for himself through his style of music.
Recently, Drille headlined the Make Music Lagos Festival in celebration of World Music Day alongside juju maestro, King Sunny Ade, Omawummi and Bez.
Here, the University of Benin graduate talks about his music, influences, aspirations and inevitable challenges of being a musician.
When did you discover music, or did it discover you?I like to think music discovered me.
I was very little when I joined the children’s choir in my local church.
My sister and I would always sing at night under the moonlight.
Those were my earliest music memories.
I pretty much grew up around musical instruments and they helped shape me to become a musician.
