S’pore singer Corey Koh, 20, launches music career with debut single
Singaporean Corey Koh was known in the local classical music scene as a child prodigy singer who performed in esteemed venues such as Victoria Concert Hall, Tokyo’s Suntory Hall and even New York’s Carnegie Hall.
But he is now branching out into pop music, having released his debut single, Only Love, on Monday. The English-language ballad focuses on the loss of a relationship with a loved one. A Mandarin version of the song is slated to be released in May, and a dance remix and music video are also in the works.
Its English lyrics were co-written by Koh and Singaporean singer-songwriter Lewis Loh, while its Chinese lyrics will be penned by Malaysian lyricist Xu Yuanting and songwriter Keon Chia. The single is produced by award-winning music producer George Leong, who has worked with Mandopop superstars Jolin Tsai and A-mei.
The former Nanyang Primary School and Raffles Institution student has completed his national service, and intends to pursue his studies in classical voice and history at an American university later in 2023. Read More…
