How her cats helped shape the songs

Finalist for China's Youth Pi Plan show

Having bad skin as a teenager

Winner of Vans Musicians Wanted at age 16

Singing the National Day Parade theme song

Helping younger talents get a leg up

Home-grown pop singer Shye is the eighth guest in this music channel.

Synopsis: Each month, The Straits Times invites music acts to its podcast studio.

In the eighth episode of Music Lab, ST's music correspondent Eddino Abdul Hadi hosts home-grown singer, songwriter and producer Shye.

At the age of 21, the multi-talented artiste, whose full name is Trinity Shye-Anne Brown, has already achieved much in recent times.

Since she made her debut in 2018 at the age of 16, she has released four EPs, one album, and multiple singles and music videos.

She was the youngest winner of music competition Vans Musicians Wanted and was also one of the singers behind 2021 National Day Song, The Road Ahead.

On streaming services, her songs rack up millions of plays. Love U, a song from her 2020 album days to morning glory, has over 3 million streams on just Spotify alone.

She has done concerts not just in Singapore, but also in the United States and China, where she recently took part in a television reality show, Youth Pi Plan. 

In this episode of Music Lab, the singer sang a live rendition of Need, a song from her latest EP released in early October, 9Lives.
