Canto-pop diva Sandy Lam emerges with first album in six years
Canto-pop diva Sandy Lam Yik-lin has been making headlines lately for her rumoured romance with vocalist-drummer Jun Kung, who is about 11 years younger than her.
But her new Mando-pop album, set for release next month after a six-year hiatus, is perhaps a bigger reason for her fans to get excited.
Lam spent the past two years working on the album, titled . Instead of turning to famous producers and musicians, she wanted to make the album more personal and worked on the lyrics and music herself.
As the title suggests - Gaia is the goddess of Earth in Greek mythology - her songs pay tribute to life and the earth.
During a recent concert at Taipei Arena, she played guitar on stage for the first time.
Lam, now in her 40s, joked that she had left it a bit late to start learning the guitar.
She will be in Taipei today, and will be performing in Hong Kong on September 21.
