- Tosin Olakanye,popularly known as Ayanbinrin is a woman in a man's world who not only sings, dances, and chants (Ijala), but also plays the talking drum (Gangan).She is an indigene of Ondo State and the eldest child in a family of four, attended State Primary School, Dopemu and Egbado College Ilaro (now YEWA College). She is a Chemical and Polymer Engineering graduate of Lagos State University and intends to pursue her Masters Degree in an Art related field.
The word Ayanbinrin simply means a female drummer.She started her journey into the world of music at an early age, but never took it seriously until 1999 when she gained admission to Lagos State University for a pre-degree Programme where she joined a traditional group called Landmark Folk voices.
Her musical art exhibits a typical African theatrical fashion, which expresses a blend of old folk songs, and the new, to suit this modern age without loosing its mellifluous and delightful originality.Few artists have been as crucial to the inventions, development and popularization of African Music which has been relegated to the background, but Ayanbinrin digs the roots with her creativity in Ijala, and bata-choreographed dance steps which resonates African traditional values and heritage.She plays seasoned African Rythms with her melodious vocal prowess and the lyrics of her songs dwell on love, tales, and unisms that echoe African Cultural history. Ayanbinrin's zeal for culture has raised her hope to a height beyond imagination as she believes in proven success.
