Early Life & Education<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Wasiu Ayinde was born on the 3rd of March, 1957, in the Agarawu<\/strong> area of Lagos Island<\/strong>. He hails from Ijebu Ode<\/strong>, Ogun State<\/strong>, which falls in the Southwestern part of Nigeria<\/strong>. His father is from Ijebu-Ode, and his mother is from Ondo State, Ilupeju. Wasiu attended his primary education and graduated from Jamatu Islamiyah Standard School<\/strong> in 1967. He began secondary school at The Government College in Isolo, Lagos<\/strong>, and later transferred to a school in Saki, Oyo State. Following his father’s tragic death in his first year, he was unable to complete his high school education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Career<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When Wasiu Ayinde was eight years old, he realized his passion for music. His parents were first opposed, but he persisted, and by the age of 15, he had won a number of local musical competitions. His career took off when he joined Ayinde Barrister’s band<\/strong>, the Supreme Fuji Commanders<\/strong>, from 1975 until 1978, after working for years as an instrument packer for him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After asking permission and blessing from his master, Ayinde Barrister, he also adopted the name Ayinde as his own. In 1980, he released his first album, Iba<\/strong>, which included the remarkable track “Abode Mecca<\/strong>,” and in 1984, he released his most successful album, Talazo<\/strong> ’84. He has numerous titles and music prizes to his credit.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1986, he went on a global tour between North America and Europe, and in 1987, he played at Hammersmith Town Hall. On September 28, 1990, the Talazo Band<\/strong> performed in New York City, United States, followed by London Yuppie 1 & 2 Nights 1991\/92, European Tour 1995, Berlin 1997, North America (USA & Canada 1998), Canada 2000, and <\/strong>USA Tour 2003. Since then, he has continued to tour nonstop every year. He gave the first-ever Fuji performance at the WOMAD Festival<\/strong> in 1995. He’s also the only Fuji musician who’s played at the Troxy, WOMEX<\/strong>, and SOB<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
