Elestee (formerly known as Lifesize Teddy), was born and raised in the bustling city of Port Harcourt, Nigeria. Christened Treasure Apiafi Banigo, Elestee has been writing music since she was just 9 years old. She cites Brenda Fassie, Lucky Dube, Sasha P and Eva Alordiah as some of her greatest influences, drawing inspiration from various aspects of their artistic journeys to construct the unique alt girl archetype that has set her apart from her contemporaries. Elestee’s first notable moment in the limelight came in 2018, when she opened for her fellow Mavin signee Ladipoe at one of his shows.
After a three year stint in the academy that has birthed some of Africa’s biggest and brightest stars, Elestee was finally unveiled as Mavin’s latest signee in 2023. She marked this pivotal moment with the release of her self-titled debut EP, which was described by the Guardian as a testament to her “impressive range, artistic intelligence, and sonic talent”.
