Yau Sze Ting

Describe your style in three words?
Strange/Emotion/Freedom.

What made you decide to be a singer?
Ever since I was young, I have loved singing. I participated in my first singing competition in secondary school and didn't even make the finals. At that time, the boy I was in love with told me that “Your singing makes me feel relaxed”. Since then, he became my first love. I first discovered that it was good to sing for someone I like and someone who likes me. Hopefully, in the future, more people would like my music to keep them company.

If you could be on the line up with any two bands in history?
Taiwan rock band Sunset Rollercoaster and Hong Kong's local indie band in the 1990s ....HUH!? ....HUH!? said: "The sense of accomplishment comes from playing good music itself." I think it’s exactly what they are doing.

Which subcultures have influenced you?
Local indie music. It combines classic and modern music elements, make me feel very comfortable.

Where was the most memorable show you ever played?
Once I was invited to perform at Galaxy Shisha Cafe and we were very happy that night. I did not regard myself as a guest performer, but a person who likes to sing. Coincidentally their guests also liked to hear me sing.

Tell me about your favourite performance venue in Hong Kong?
Bar. Most of the people who come to drink are trying to numb themselves with alcohol. Every song dedication is like helping them to sing what they are thinking, which is also a kind of release for them.
