With Vicktor Taiwò

Mary Anne welcomes Vicktor Taiwò into the studio for a 3 Minute Epiphany on the search for an authentic voice.

Mary Anne welcomes Vicktor Taiwò into the studio for a 3 Minute Epiphany on the search for an authentic voice.

Vicktor Taiwò released his debut album 'Joy Comes in Spirit' three years after releasing his first EP 'Juno'. He says that his latest recording embodies a truer sense of himself, and mirrors his fascination with capturing the human experience.

Vicktor moved from Johannesburg to London when he was just eight years old, joining the church choir but then moving into his other love of photography. His return to music, he says, has been "transformative", and has pushed him to, as James Baldwin wrote in his essay 'The Creative Process', 'conquer the great wilderness of himself'.

Tune in as he explores the idea of being honest to yourself, questioning what it is that makes you truly happy, and allowing your instincts to guide you into making decisions that you can stand by.
