Born in Belgium Tina Sureda Castello, also known as Onesty is a
multitalented artist. At the age of six Onesty started to sing in the Antwerp
cathedral choir, this experience was the base of her musical evolution. The
Sureda family, a spring of vocal talent, surrounded her with music, singing and
concerts; she would always follow them around and imitate them when nobody was
watching her. Onesty already knew at a tender age, that her main goal was,
BECOMING A SINGER. She showed natural songwriting during her early years, as
she was only 8 years old when she wrote two completed songs. As a young teenager
Onesty developed a great love for urban music, Reggae, Soul, Hip Hop, R&B
etc... At that time she also joined an urban collective group of dancers: They
were called Jobo's streetwise dancers. They travelled all over Europe, doing
different kind of stages. Still a choreographer and occasional dance
teacher, her singing and rapping skills
has always been her main focus which has
allowed her to be involved with projects, bands and great performances.
In 2006 Onesty stepped up to her calling, her unique sound, with that warm and soulful presence, meant that there was always going to be a place for her as a female European artist to look out for. Her songs are a mixture of reggae, soul, R&B with all the special touch you could only find in her music. Onesty has performed live with Ashamband, a young upcoming Belgian reggae band. Since 2007 she has come together with her own musicians and has been touring Belgium, with additional shows in other parts of Europe to a well received audience and promoters who have welcomed her new fresh sound. Onesty has had the pleasure of opening on concerts for international artist such as Max Romeo, Earl 16, Pressure, Blackmann, Red Rat, Tikenja Fakoly and many othjer Belgian bands with international fame like Leki .. The promo Cd "Take Your Time" is produced by Onesty and shows you the beginning of a rich musical evolution.
