While Echolina, as her stage name suggests, attended church services with her parents, she attracted the public’s attention when at age 10 in 2003 she started as a professional singer.

“I started singing as a small girl,” Echolina noted during a press chat, adding that two star female Gospel singers, Nigeria’s Shola Allyson and American Tasha Cobbs, inspired her passion for music, Gospel genre primarily.

 

 

Although she’s fairly new in the industry, as she would be launching her first ever music album titled ‘New Sun’ (Oorun Tuntun), aiming to announce her arrival, it’s obvious that with the 4-tracker forthcoming album, Echolina has the singing code and nuance of a seasoned singer. According to Echolina, she is out to add her voice through her divine gift to the Nigerian Gospel music industry which boasts of heaps of music talents, including female vocals that are constantly preaching Christ and winning souls with Gospel songs.

A second child from the family of HRM Oba Festus Ololajulo Isogun, the Amapetu of Mahinland, Echolina attended Ilaje High School, Igbokoda in Ondo State before proceeding to Lead City University, Ibadan for her tertiary education.
