about the artist

Album coming out September 9th, 2009 (09.09.09)


Dawen Wang - EP



Dawen Wang - EP




Fusing the grooves of Neo-soul with socially conscious lyricism, Dawen explores the American dream. As a singer-songwriter, Dawen hopes his music will further the dialogue on racism and social injustice in American society.





A graduate of Northwestern University, Dawen was classically trained as a vocalist and has been singing and playing piano since he was six years old. Dawen also plays guitar and the mbira dzavadzimu.

Based in Los Angeles, Dawen has performed at venues such as Aye Carumba and UCLA.

Hey Folks: I've started posting vids on my YouTube channel. The first is my cover of Maxwell's new single "Pretty Wings."

It would really help me out a lot as an independent artist. My aim is to put a new clip up every 2 weeks. I'm also taking requests so put yours in now (I've already got a few for Halo)! Hope you enjoy the vid! Go to my channel to see the other vids! www.youtube.com/dawen


 


In the meantime, find me on facebook, myspace, and twitter!

As soon as I heard "Just You" I had to go to Amazon and buy it. The way you're putting down tracks has made me a Fan. Smooth, Jazzy, and Ultra influential dance music. 2ndson2002 said KEEP THE LOVE ALIVE Joy, Luv, and Gratitude .
