Trish Thuy Trang

Trish Thuy Trang (1980-    ) is a Vietnamese-American singer and songwriter who had first gained prominence in the late 1990s with her video appearances and audio recordings for Asia Productions.

Born on December 15, 1980 in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, Trish Thuy Trang left Vietnam with her family to live in the United States while at a very young age.  The family first resettled in Sugarland, Texas before finally relocating to Southern California.  At the age of 17, Trish Thuy Trang sent in a demo tape to Asia Productions.  The following year, she was signed with a contract as an exclusive artist for Asia Productions and released her first solo studio album, Don't Know Why.  From her debut appearance on video for Asia Productions, viewer audiences were drawn to her unique style of singing and performing, a combination of both Eastern and Western flair, a reflection of her own upbringing being from Vietnam and having been raised in the United States.  In a short period of time, Trish Thuy Trang would join the ranks of Lam Nhat Tien, Lam Thuy Van and Shayla as one of Asia Productions' hottest new discoveries in the overseas Vietnamese music industry of the 1990s.  After the success of her first album in 1998, Trish Thuy Trang would follow up with solo studio albums, I'll Dream of You (1999) and Siren (2002), for the Asia Productions label.

In 2005, Trish Thuy Trang formed her own music production label, Triple T Productions.  That same year, she made a memorable appearance on Asia Productions in a duet of Y Van's May Lang Thang with legendary singer Kieu Nga.  She has since released three more solo studio albums:  Trish (2005). Shades of Blue (2008) and Whispers (2010).  She also writes most of the songs that she has recorded.  Among her most well received singles include Crossing Over, Stay a While, Paper Lantern, Without a Trace, Ice Queen and In the Middle of Nowhere.  

With a fan base that includes overseas Vietnamese audiences in Europe, Australia, North America and Asia, Trish Thuy Trang continues to perform at live shows all over the world.  She has been married since 2010 and is now a mother of two children, a son and a daughter.  Trish Thuy Trang sings, speaks and writes in both English and Vietnamese fluently.
