Yomi Peters Strikes New Internatio­nal Deal

-

SENSATIONA­LJUJU musician, Yomi Peters, has signed a one-of-its- kind deal with Deniver Global Holdings Ventures, a United

States- (US) based organisati­on specialise­d in artist management and promotion. Founder of the organisati­on, Hamzat Dennis Ayandiran, a musician himself, disclosed that Yomi is the first artist signed to DGHV.

“Since Yomi signed with us, it has been progress on progress.”

Ayandiran said while he was thinking of the first artist to sign on, Peters, with whom he played as musicians, was the first name that came to his mind and when he consulted his wife on it, she agreed that Peters was the right choice.

“I have known Yomi for over 20 years. He has been a friend and brother. We have played together as musicians in Nigeria and when Yomi was still in America, we toured the length and breadth of America as well, and I am very happy to be working with him again in a profession­al capacity.

“We are going to market his albums, Iwure and Happy Birthday, in America, as well as his upcoming album,” he stated. On his part, Yomi said he was so happy to sign with Ayandiran’s outfit, because “he is a fellow musician, so he understand­s music and the dynamics of the music business.

“Mind you, I don’t see him as just a businessma­n, but my brother, because we have done so many things together and now we are still moving to the next level together.”
