Tunde: 30 Years of Ocean Drive, Postcards from Heaven + More

The unmistakable voice of the multi-platinum Lighthouse Family, Tunde Baiyewu has sold over 15 million albums worldwide, soundtracking a generation with unforgettable hits including Lifted, High, Ocean Drive and Raincloud. His warm, soulful vocals and heartfelt songwriting have earned him six-times Platinum albums, top-five singles and sell-out tours across the UK, Europe and beyond.

Born in London to Nigerian parents and raised between the UK and Lagos, Tunde’s career began in Newcastle, where he met musical partner Paul Tucker and formed Lighthouse Family in 1993. Following huge success, he launched a solo career, releasing acclaimed albums Tunde and Diamond in a Rock, before reuniting for Blue Sky In Your Head in 2019.

Now, to mark 30 years since the release of Ocean Drive, Tunde embarks on a special run of headline shows — including an unmissable night at The Fire Station, Sunderland. Fans can expect a stunning mix of Lighthouse Family classics, reimagined favourites and beautiful new songs, including his latest single Rain To A Rainbow, championed by BBC Radio 2 and streaming platforms.

From arena tours with Gabrielle to intimate concerts, Tunde’s voice remains as captivating as ever — a true celebration of timeless music
