Lara George’s Educational Background
Lara George had her primary and secondary education at Queen’s College, Yaba in Lagos Nigeria and later went to the Lagos State University where she had a Bachelor’s degree in Architecture.

Lara George’s Music Career
While on campus, Lara was in a now disbanded music group called KUSH (Kinetically Ushering Salvation into Hearts and Homes). Though this group with their top single “Let us live together” was very popular on campus with a recorded hit success from their experience album, it did not last long.
With just one album to their credit, the group came to an abrupt end, due largely to egoistic calculations and financial uncertainties that surround humanities. In the group were Toyin Bello, Dapo Tormiro, Emem Iyang and of course the talented Lara George. Their fans also felt the impact of the disappointing split then.
Lara went fully into gospel music. She released her debut album, ‘Forever In My Heart‘, in 2008 and the hit single, ‘Ijoba Orun‘ was another hit song that earned her a good number of awards and nominations. She became a force to reckon with in the gospel music industry in Nigeria.
