Everything in music was self taught, he stumbled towards being a singer songwriter with countless hours of singing and writing aimlessly until he had his first big break as a song writer for some big names in Chinese music around 2000 (Yanzi Sun, Eason Chan to name a few), then he started his own label LYFE Music focusing on bringing something different to the then idol saturated Chinese music market, with the debut album \u2018Pillow Songs\u2019 earning him an iconic status in a genre called \u2018City Folk\u2019 by the mainland Chinese media.<\/p>\n<p>All these years Lam has been filling up theatres and stadiums without any major label support, from doing acclaimed live cabaret shows with just one guitar or piano to performing with full scale Chinese and western orchestras, Lam has been evolving nonstop.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the show<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Asian Talents is a talk programme presented by Alice Chau, that represents the Asian community and featuring Asian people that are contributing to Ireland in their own niche.The programme is bilingual in Cantonese and English.<\/p>\n<p>Asian Talents Social Media:<\/p>\n<p>Facebook page:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/AsianTalents\">www.facebook.com\/AsianTalents \u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Twitter page:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/asia_nearfm\">www.twitter.com\/asia_nearfm<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u7b2c\u4e03\u96c6\u5605\u5609\u8cd3\u4fc2\u5531\u4f5c\u4eba\u6797\u4e00\u5cf0 \u6797\u4e00\u5cf0\u4fc2\u4e00\u4f4d\u4f86\u81ea\u9999\u6e2f\u5605\u8cc7\u6df1\u7368\u7acb\u5531\u4f5c\u4eba\u3002 \u4eca\u6b21\u4f62\u6703\u540c\u6211\u54cb\u5206\u4eab\u5413\u9ede\u89e3\u569f\u5497\u611b\u723e\u862d\uff0c\u6700\u8fd1\u5fd9\u7dca\u5572\u4e5c\uff0c\u540c\u55ba\u611b\u723e\u862d\u751f\u6d3b\u5605\u9ede\u9ede\u6ef4\u6ef4\u3002 A veteran and fiercely independent singer songwriter, Chet Lam is originally from Hong Kong.
