Industry :

The Arts

Social :

Toon quit her job as an art director and graphic designer in an advertising agency to indulge in her passion for music. She picked up the guitar while she was still in school and started writing songs for fun, sharing them with friends on social media. By the time she was in university, she was producing her own music, and she soon became known through Fat Radio, with invites for gigs. Her musical inspirations include church and gospel music and R&B. Her songs are mostly about her impressions of city life, but acknowledges that her background in creative design allows her to decode issues and emotions that make their way into her lyrics. Through her concern for society, she has collaborated with various organisations such as the Mirror Foundation and the Peaceful Death Project to highlight sensitive issues including LGBTQ+ rights, women rights, human trafficking and death. She is proud that Stoondio and the music she has written continues to thrive and reach a wide audience. She also hopes to create an alternative space for indie musicians such as herself.
