Dwin, The Stoic is a Nigerian singer-songwriter, performer, composer, and writer known for his poetic lyricism and genre-bending sound. He is also the founder and president of St. Claire Records, an independent record label.
In 2023, he released the EP Love Lane with producer Rhaffy, spawning three viral tracks including fan-favourite Streets. In 2024 he released his sophomore solo album Master of Ballads, a richly cinematic body of work anchored by the standout single I Go Nowhere, which has garnered over 3 million total streams within its first year and received a 2025 live + acoustic re-release.
His earlier work includes Heavy Heart (2018), Go with Me (2019), and the Ignis Brothers album The Cost of Our Lives (2020), named one of Pulse Nigeria’s best albums of the year.
Dwin, The Stoic's music has been used in various film and tv shows - from NdaniTV’s ‘Skinny Girl In Transit’ to award-winning ‘37 To Go’, the Netflix Original ‘Far From Home’, the Disney+ documentary "MADU" and several other theatrical releases.
As a performer, he has toured cities in Nigeria and after selling out the 1000-seater Shell Hall at MUSON centre Lagos, he will be taking his tour across Africa in 2025.
Influenced by Paul Simon, Jim Reeves, Labrinth, Asa, and the literary legacies of Toni Morrison and Chinua Achebe, Dwin blends afropop, chamber pop, folk, soft rock, and electronic music into something wholly his own: reflective, cinematic, and timeless.
