Sir Shina Peters started his music career young, playing with friends as "Olushina and His Twelve Fantastic Brothers." He taught himself the piano, joined Ebenezer Obey’s band, then moved to General Prince Adekunle’s band as a guitarist, occasionally filling in as a lead singer. Later, he teamed up with Segun Adewale to form "Shina Adewale," but they eventually split. Peters then founded his own band, "Sir Shina Peters & His International Stars," releasing multiple hit albums. He has also appeared in a few Nollywood films.
