Natalie Chandra

She first showed interest in singing at the age of 13 after watching a musical performance at her junior high school. Soon after, singing became an integral part of her life. At the age of 17 she enrolled in the La Salle-SIA College of Performing Arts in Singapore, where she was given the opportunity to spend four years fine-tuning her skills as an artist whilst singing professionally in clubs, hotels and at important events. She started writing her own songs during her last year at the Performing Arts College and ardently continued this throughout the next several years, still singing cover songs with different bands and musicians at night and earning a living as an English teacher by day. She decided to record a demo of three original songs shortly before returning home to Switzerland in 2001, in the hope that they would eventually be heard by a few interested ears in the country. One and a half years later, synchronicity introduced her to her present production team. Her rather unique attitude towards life is strongly displayed in each of her songs, covering subjects ranging from her fellow human beings' arrogance and disrespect towards the environment and animals, to the inner-struggles of the human heart and fierce emotions. On what has most inspired her life and music, she believes,
"... the opportunity to grow up in many different countries has allowed me to become
more aware of my responsibility towards our world. Thus, the ability to feel empathy
for what is not mine has so far been my greatest inspiration".
And thus the journey continues into unknown territory ;)
