In what he describes as a "new beginning", Tunde Lasode(t-Las), a saxophonist and music producer, released his debut gospel instrumental album earlier in 2022, titled Audience of One, volume 1 & 2. Having experienced first hand the divine healing power of God through his music therapy sessions as a registered nurse in northern California, his only priority is to put the spotlight on Christ, using his gift through the power of the Holy Spirit to the glory and praise of the one who is truly deserving of it, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Also, to continue to spread the good news of the gospel, to promote healing and deliverance from bondage, oppression, and depression, through his saxophone playing.

Growing up in Nigeria, t-Las often feels nostalgic about some of the spiritual songs that influenced him, and is concerned that these divinely inspired songs with deep spiritual meaning are no longer being sung. As such, they are fast fading away from our memories due to the current musical atmosphere, and we are missing out on the opportunity to pass them down to our younger ones (not that current contemporary gospel songs aren’t great).

Having been divinely inspired to do so, he's made it a point of duty to revive or reinvent some of them in his own unique style. Such songs as the traditional Nigerian song "Ko sagbara to da bi ti Jesu", "we bless you Lord you are holy", to name a few have been revised with unique eclectic sound (sometimes with African embellishments), that will linger and refresh the mind. His new release titled "The Greatest Conquering Power" (TGCP) premiers october 1st, 2023
