She burst onto the local music scene in 2018, when – at just 16 – she impressed both the crowd and the judges to win the Vans Musicians Wanted indie music competition. In 2019, she opened for Clairo when the American singer-songwriter performed in Singapore; the following year, she released her self-produced debut album Days to Morning Glory; in 2021, she performed the National Day theme song The Road Ahead at the National Day Parade (NDP) and released her second album Hello Trinity; and last year, she beat four other artistes to win Best New Act from Asia at the Bandlab NME Awards in London.
Now 21 years old, home-grown producer and singer-songwriter Trinity Shye-Anne Brown – who goes by the stage name Shye– continues to share her remarkable gift with fans with the release of her new single Somehow, Last Month.
Not bad for a young woman with no formal music training, and whose career success she once described as a “happy accident”. “Growing up, I trained as a dancer, studying Chinese dance at NAFA (Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts), and ballet at the Singapore Ballet Academy and The School of Dance. Music was never a big thing in my household, and I wasn’t really exposed to music,” explains Shye, who lives with her parents, two older brothers and younger brother. She completed her secondary education at SOTA (School of the Arts Singapore).
