Luong Tung Quang

Luong Tung Quang (1971-    ) is an overseas Vietnamese singer.

Born as Luong Quang Truong Chinh in Saigon, South Vietnam, he is the youngest in a family of four boys.  One year after graduating from the prestigious Petrus Ky High School in Saigon, he along with his mother and one older brother were able to relocate to Perth, Australia where they would be reunited with one of his older brothers who had resettled there since 1980.  His one older brother who had chosen to remain in Vietnam, unfortunately had passed away in 1995.

To many of his fans today, Luong Tung Quang had first gained prominence as a recording artist for Van Son Entertainment back in 1998.  From his debut music video appearance with his rendition of Nuoc Mat (Cry) featured on volume 10 of Van Son Entertainment's Nu Cuoi & Nu Cuoi series, he exploded onto the overseas Vietnamese music scene mesmerizing viewer audiences with his good looks, charm and vocal talents.  In the two years that followed, Luong Tung Quang would become the most popular male music artist on the Van Son Entertainment series scoring a handful of hit songs like Cuoc Tinh Danh Mat, a cover of a Chinese love song with Vietnamese lyrics he had written himself, Neu Da Yeu, Cuoc Tinh Cay Dang, Cuoc Tinh Doi Gian and Sao Van Con Yeu.  In addition, he had also recorded several well-received duets with fellow label mate, Tam Doan, for Van Son Entertainment which included Khuc Nhac Duoi Trang and Vi Dau Yeu Ngay Xua.  


Prior to his association with Van Son Entertainment, Luong Tung Quang had began his professional singing career back in Perth, Australia during the early 1990s as the lead male singer for a local Vietnamese band called Hy Vong.  While in Australia, he had managed to gain a sizable following of fans within the overseas Vietnamese community resettled there and was then known by the stage name, Tung Quang.

In 2001, after two years as an exclusive artist signed with Van Son Entertainment, Luong Tung Quang was then offered a contract with Thuy Nga Paris, the largest and most prolific overseas Vietnamese music production label.  He has since appeared in a total of 38 volumes of the popular Paris By Night music video series produced by Thuy Nga Paris, beginning with his performance of Trai Tim Ran Vo written by Quoc Hung on volume 61 that was filmed in Paris, France.  Luong Tung Quang has enjoyed one of the longest professional collaborations with the Thuy Nga Paris music production label which has continued to this day.  Under the Thuy Nga Paris label, he has recorded numerous duets, as well as appeared on music videos, with other top artists like Tu Quyen, Minh Tuyet, Don Ho, Thuy Tien, Nhu Loan, Ho Le Thu and Bao Han.  For almost two decades, his immense popularity has taken him to all four corners of the world performing at sold-out live concert shows and has turned Luong Tung Quang into one of the most recognizable Vietnamese male singers worldwide.
