Biography
Tommy WÁ is a Nigerian-born, Ghana-based singer-songwriter, poet, guitarist and visual storyteller whose music sits at the intersection of Afro-folk, indie, soul and contemporary folk. Drawing from his Nigerian roots and experiences growing up across West Africa, he combines rich storytelling, acoustic instrumentation and introspective songwriting to create a sound that feels both personal and culturally grounded.
He began gaining recognition with his seven-track EP, Roadman & Folks (2023), before signing with British independent label Dirty Hit. His subsequent EP, Somewhere Only We Go (2025), marked another step in his artistic evolution, earning attention from international music publications and expanding his audience beyond African.
