TK is a dynamic, WCMA-nominated, Afrosoul/Jazz fusion artist whose sound weaves together Neosoul, R&B, Jazz, and Afrobeats into a smooth, groove-rich experience. Originally from Nigeria, TK brings a deep rhythmic connection to the stage, known for the rare ability to sing and play drums simultaneously—creating a powerful and immersive live performance. His genre-bending style and infectious energy have earned him spots at major festivals including Tofino Jazz Festival, Khatsahlano Street Party and Victoria’s Canada Day Celebration. He’s also opened for acclaimed artists such as Cautious Clay, Earl Sweatshirt, and Bob Marley’s, Wailers.
