Hamilton Ontario based contemporary Christian/Gospel
duo; Folarin & Keziah,defy traditional norms as they burst unto the
Canadian music scene with their eclectic style of high energy, exuberant praise,
heart-felt and passionate worship. This Covenant Award nominated duo are set to
take it to the next level with the much anticipated release of their debut
album ‘Relentless’ which promises to be laced with songs of praise, worship,
adoration and devotion to God, allwritten and performed in a way that resonates
universally with everyone.
Upon relocating to Canada in 2012, Folarin &
Keziah started sensing a call to take their music beyond the traditional
setting of the local church in a bid to reach not only the churched but the
unchurched as well. “We started meeting
and making friends with lots of people that were into mainstream music. They
showed interest and so much support for our music but quite reluctant to come
to church”. They soon went to work creating a fresh sound with broad appeal
working with the likes of Amy King White of Grant Avenue Studios, Hamilton and
Samuel Williams of Samsound Productions, Toronto.
Building a reputation for themselves in the Greater
Toronto and Hamilton area of Ontario, Canada, Folarin & Keziah were soon
acknowledged as singers/songwriters and worshippers that are sensitive to the
multicultural needs of the modern church and able to speak to the diversity
pervasive and celebrated in the Canadian society.
2019 was the big breakthrough year for Folarin &
Keziah, with the release of their first single and acclaimed praise and worship
anthem “Jesus Is Alive”. This release was followed by three more singles “You
Deserve”, “You Are My God” and “Surrendering All”. “You are my God” recently
earned a nomination in the “Gospel Song of the Year” category in the 41st
Annual Covenant Awards Nominations for the Gospel Music Association (GMA)
Canada. Folarin & Keziah also started their own independent music label God
Colors Media Inc. to produce, publish and promote their music.

The music produced by the duo was born out of the
need to write, produce and perform original music content that cuts across
multiple genres of music from contemporary gospel, to praise and worship, to Christian
pop and soft rock. Folarin & Keziah have a passion to write songs that
invites heaven to earth while also evoking a response to God’s relentless love,
grace and mercy. Based on their experience of living and leading praise and
worship in Nigeria, England and Canada, Folarin & Keziah are intentional
about transcending the boundaries of color, culture and creed so that everyone
can experience the love and forgiveness of God.
Folarin & Keziah have a heart for God and
people. They express their musicgenuinely from the heart ina waythat combines
art, scripture, and song in perfect unison. Folarin & Keziah’s unique style
includes melodic hooks, deft arrangements, and lush harmonies that provide the
right foundation to support the core of each song.

“Relentless” in December 2019, followed by a Relentless tour through major
