Winner for Best Folk Album

Winner for Best Music (David Chen)

This is the second album of the “Fade to Blue” project, which continues to combine the heterogeneous sounds of two musicians as they expand and refine new interpretations of tradition and musical narratives. The album is not only imbued with new interpretations of Koa-á-hì Taiwanese opera and folk music elements, it is weaves stories of ethnic Chinese immigrants in North America into the musical narrative. Collaborators on the album include singer Wanfang, back-up vocalist Wang Yujun, traditional strings musician Chin Kuo-shiang, and Hammond b3 organist Tseng Tseng-yi. The tones and rhythms of the album reflect the swelling of the tides as island meets sea, measuring the drifting of people and the pulse of the ocean. This album was awarded the 2021 Golden Indie Music Awards for Best Folk Album and Best Musician for David Chen. James Catchpole, music critic for the British folk music magazine “Songlines” published an article recommending the album. It also reached number 4 on the monthly World Music Charts Europe.
