About
Welcome to Chinese American singer songwriter Chet Lam's official YouTube channel.
Storytelling singer Chet Lam spent his childhood in Hong Kong’s gritty, inner city housing
complexes with very little resources. As a gay kid growing up in a humble environment while
trying to figure out where he fit in, he found solace in the poignant and poetic outlaw and
brokenhearted narratives of 1970s Americana and country artists. Chet also saw in USA roots
music similarities with Chinese pop, as both brimmed with strong melodies, sensitive stories, and
careful attention to lyrical detail.
