Hello everyone. I am very delighted to let you know that I have just made a research about one of the most talented Nigerian music band. Truly, they are not very popular but I’m very sure that with time, they will gain the attention that they deserve because they sing so well.
I was making a research to know the next music band I will talk or write about then I found about the Aristos band. I watched their performance and all and I can proudly say that they will be worth my time as they sing and perform so well.
The Aristos band was found in the year 2008 by a veteran saxophonist, musiv producer and keyboardist named Sammy Sodeke. The beginning of his career can be traced back to the time when he was making music under the band of a great legend, Lagbaja befor Sammy now decided to stand all on his own.
It is known that Sammy named his band Aristos which is originated from the Greek language which means BEST.
The Aristos band made sure that they do not only focus on a genre of music but revolve around all genres of music as long as they can make a song out of it.
For you to know that this music band is well known, they have won so many awards in the Nigerian music industry.
Also, they mostly focus on making live music. It takes a good artiste and good band to come out boldly to make live music.
Let’s watch some of their performances before we can judge them.
Watching this performance, you can see a fully blooded African performance and music in it. I would not like to say that every Nigerian artiste sings Afro pop but there is always a touch of Afro pop in our songs which is mostly the trumpet and particularly how it is being played.
This is a very enjoyable performance by the Aristos band. I love how they started the performance on a sliw note then ended it with a fast tone.
Here, they didn’t just focus on one genre but all. They as well went from Gospel to Afro. That was a very fast switch.
If I’m not mistaken, I think the Aristos band is one of the most versatile bands I’ve ever known because they can easily switch from one music genre to the other while maintaining a beat but jumping on every music genre on it.
I noticed something about this great band. I mentioned earlier that the band is owned by a saxophonist and he doesn’t sing much.
He focused on his trumpet while letting others use their voice.
That’s how to recognize a great band. A band that has every full part of music like the saxophonist, pianist, voice singers and others.
If you’d be having a typical Nigerian wedding, I think they are one of the best people to call upon.
As far as I’m concerned, the Aristos band is the best. Let’s have one more performance before we call it a day.
Thank you for your time!
