IT was a day of glory for music producer, Cobhams Asuquo on Sunday March 12, 2017, at the Civic Center, Victoria Island, Lagos, as he launched his highly-anticipated debut album at an exclusive high-profile command performance.
Tagged ‘For You’, the album release was witnessed by corporate executives, artistes, Christian community leaders and captains of industry.
The duo of Fome Peters and Edaniels, both talented artistes, set the tone for the evening in separate live performances. Their brief performances provided the tempo for what was to come.
Dressed in white tuxedo with black collar outlines, Cobhams was ushered on stage by compere, IK Osakioduwa amidst loud ovation. He was led to the stage by his beautiful wife, Ojuola Asuquo who stepped aside once Cobhams was seated by his piano. From that moment, it was about the music.
With lyrics displaying on the giant LED screen, Cobhams complemented with his full band and background vocalists. He opened with the first song on his album, Make Our Hearts and continued flawlessly with other tracks.
A highpoint of the concert was the ceremonial unveiling of the album which was performed by Atedo Peterside, chairman of Stanbic IBTC Holdings Plc and Cadbury Nigeria Plc and his wife Mrs. Dudu Peterside.
Among those who graced the launch were Sammie Okposo, Falz, Waje, Omawumi, Toke Makinwa, Seyi Shay, Yemi Alade, Timi Dakolo, TY Mix, Paul Okoye, Kamal Ajiboye, Gloria, Elvina Ibru and Nosa. Other eminent personalities at the occasion include Atedo Peterside, the chief launcher, Dr. Tony Rapu, Adesuwa Onyenokwe and former First Lady of Cross River state, Mrs. Onari Duke.
After the unveiling of the album, the artiste will commence an album tour on Sunday, March 28 at the Pistis Centre, Lekki.
