ABOUT KHALIL FONG

Khalil Fong (方大同), born on 14 July, 1983 in Kauai, Hawaii, is a Mando-pop/R&B/Soul composer, producer and singer, notable for his unconventional and innovative approach in the Chinese music industry.

The evolution of his unique style is the result of diverse musical and cultural influences. Khalil was introduced to a variety of soul, funk, and jazz music at a very young age by his father, a professional drummer. By the age of 4, he had already shown interest in music, playing the drums at home and sitting in as a guest vocalist at his father's gigs. Khalil’s first endeavour to learn an instrument himself came when he started to play the guitar at the age of 15. He later on expanded his musicianship to playing the piano and drums for the sake of becoming a better producer and arranger.

The movie La Bamba had a great influence on inspiring Khalil to be a musician. Likewise, amongst his biggest influences are artists such as Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Steely Dan, D’Angelo, Jimi Hendrix, Questlove and Musiq Soulchild who have had a profound influence on the direction of Khalil’s musical journey. Art plays a paramount role in promoting and enhancing harmony among humanity, and music as an art acts as a medium for enriching and enlivening the human soul.

Despite being born in Hawaii, Khalil has been nurtured in both Chinese culture and language during his childhood years, living in Shanghai and Guangzhou. After moving to Hong Kong, he started to experiment in songwriting and began to record simple demos at home. His aim was to eventually introduce a more authentic soul, R&B, and hip-hop sound into Chinese music. Hence, Khalil has produced mostly Mandarin songs, gaining him a loyal following in Greater China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and other Asian countries. In addition to his own works, he is constantly involved in songwriting and production, penning tracks for influential artists such as A-mei, Eason Chan, Jane Zhang, Fiona Sit, Andy Lau, Joey Yung, Ivana Wong, Kay Tse and Jacky Cheung. Khalil is one of the few Chinese artists to focus on hook and rhythm based songwriting versus the traditional Chinese melodic formula.

Besides his dedication to the arts, Khalil is also passionate about living green and healthy, and to pass on the spirit of peace and unity. As he enters the 11th year of his career, Khalil has established a production team, JTW, named after the title of his upcoming double album due to be released in the third quarter of 2016.
