OLIVIA THAI, a powerhouse name in the Asian American new media scene for comedy and music proves to be more than just a funny singer. In her first two months of becoming a songwriter in late 2014, she had written over 100 original songs - most of them with the intent of having other artists sing them. She quickly learned that it would be wise to present several of these works to her own loyal following of over 150,000 fans who have named themselves her #oliviathaiarmy.

With truth and creativity being her priorities in every piece she has written, it is no surprise that her original, “Why I Stayed” leads her to be ranked #1 on ReverbNation’s R&B charts. “Why I Stayed” continues to be a testament to her songwriting abilities as she proceeds to accept the Independent Music Award at the 2015 Hollywood Music in Media Awards as well as the Akademia Award for Best R&B Ballad in 2015.

Who knew that OLIVIA THAI - the girl who had amassed over 21,000,000 views on YouTube and won ETTV’s Taiwanese Idol singing covers - would become a 2x award-winning musician with a #1 original song in her first year as a songwriter? The next goal in her music career is to write for major label artists in order to share her introspective yet brokenhearted truth to as many listeners as possible.
