Singer-songwriter-author Inch Chua is an all-round creative who tells GERRIE LIM that she’s an introvert who still yearns to be a painter
The song, titled “Trees,” drops in January 2018 and heralds her third album, after Wallflower (2010) and Bumfuzzle (2013). Meantime, an EP called Letters to Ubin followed in 2015, in tandem with two singles, “MouseDeer” and “Dust That Moves”. In-between, in 2014, she launched her book, Between the Devil & the Deep Blue Sea, an amalgamation of her journals and lyrics, published by The Altar Collective in Los Angeles.

I would not be lonely. But, in my purpose as a human being, I feel I should be part of this, going out with friends and being sociable, even though my baseline is to be an introvert.”
