About
DIVINE WORLD
Nonye Toria, the Vocal Power House of Afrobeat Without a doubt, Nonye Toria has a compelling voice that captures the ears and hearts of anyone who listens to her music. She also displays a rare musical brilliance with her lyrics and versatility. It is evident in her just-released debut Single, Divine World, and her previously released Album, Felicitas Saeculi. The 12-track album has all the ingredients that define the quality Afrobeat album and would no doubt do the numbers. As Nonye Toria gradually registers her sound and places it in the Nigerian and African music scene, her growing fans need to know about their favourite's background. Nonye Toria was originally named Victoria-Joy Nonye Okocha and was born in Lagos. She is from a royal lineage in Delta State, Nigeria. Nonye, however, spent the early parts of her life living in Lagos, Nigeria, before relocating to England at age 13. While in the UK, she attended Redmaids High School, Henley College, East Berkshire College, Hull University and Metropolitan University Budapest. Nonye is also a humanitarian, as she has worked with the likes of Dayo Israel Foundation to create youth empowerment programs in affiliation with the United Nations (UN). Nonye started her musical journey playing the flute as a child. She was part of the Sarafina Musical at Dominican Primary School. In 2006, she went on to join the Mo- Town band when she was at Berkshire College, Langley, UK. As a band member, she performed covers from "The Temptation", "Johnny Cash", and some old-school blues. In 2008, Nonye performed before the Queen of England, who attended her Performing Arts School. The same year, she featured in a few episodes of "EastEnders- BBC, a favourite TV in Britain. She has also performed in shows around the UK. Nonye's powerful and distinctive vocals have earned her a position second to none in the Afrobeat space. She has so far released five singles, with her first hit single Bad Girl bringing her to the spotlight. Nonye has also dropped the visuals for her recent hit song, Paper Loving remix. In March 2022, she got signed to WorldMaidens Music Entertainment. In 2023, Nonye released a new Single called Divine World and is looking forward to releasing new Singles before the end of the year and first quarter of 2024. Nonye believes music is therapeutic. She uses her music to heal the soul and earth. Her debut album, Felicitas Saeculi- Happiness of Ages, as well as her new Single Divine World, is available on streaming platforms. Nonye Toria is open to collaborations from both Nigerian and international acts.
