Description
Nicholas Chim is a singer-songwriter from Singapore who has been performing with his guitar, since 1999. Having played to regional audiences in countries such as Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia - both solo and with backing musicians - Nicholas’ brand of indie folk music has proven to be heartfelt, contemporary and inspiring all at once.

Nicholas Chim’s evolutionary journey of indie folk music is expressed in his second album Forgiefan - a record that is both classic and contemporary, highlighted by Chim’s haunting vocals along with guitar chords that are lucid yet dreamy.

With his latest full-length album, Forgiefan, Nicholas Chim has set himself apart as a unique voice in a growing contemporary folk music audience. Citing influences such as Bon Iver, Nick Drake & Ray Lamontagne, his music has proven to be accessible, dynamic and enchanting - traits common to the global pool of emerging independent artists.
