Kiyu combines alternative pop with the care, adventurousness, and the personal touch of an early 2000’s cassette. Navigating through the jumble of emotions we face everyday, this Hong Kong singer/songwriter tells the story of a 21 year old boy going through life. Kiyu takes his work a step further, discussing his own, and many others’, inner demons: anxiety, depression, loneliness, and so much more that are essential to speak about but rarely does. Having grown up in Hong Kong, Kiyu listened to Beyond and Eason Chan while rocking out to artists like The Script, One Ok Rock, and Lauv. It’s clear his sound comes from the variety of sounds he loves, mixing them into one giant melting pot. Starting his journey at the end of high school, to releasing his first song at the beginning of college, he has continued towards his goal of “playing live at the biggest stadium so everyone can cry and scream out loud about how sad they are but forget about it for two hours.
