Lighthouse Family were an English duo from the mid-1990s to the early 2000s. Vocalist Tunde Baiyewu and keyboard player Paul Tucker formed the act in 1993 in Newcastle upon Tyne, England after meeting at university. Their 1995 debut album Ocean Drive sold more than 1.6 million copies in the UK alone and established them as a popular easy listening duo throughout Europe.
Lighthouse Family split up in early 2003 because of what they said was a "heavy promotional schedule" following the release of 'Whatever Gets You Through The Day'" in 2002.
This led to both men pursuing individual projects. Baiyewu embarked on a solo career, and released an album called Tunde in late 2004.
