The highly anticipated self-titled album will be released April 24th and features 13 original tracks produced by a who’s-who of today’s best music talent.

Marie Claire Magazine raves that “this Malaysian singer-songwriter's voice feels like cashmere”, and after only a few short weeks after its release, “Live Your Life” has been added to high-rotation on Sirius-XM’s The Loft, NPR, and “Morning Becomes Eclectic” on KCRW-LA, among others. The release of the new track follows a jam-packed 2011 filled with featured coverage in the PBS series “Off Book”, SPIN Magazine’s “Eight Bands You Need to Hear Now”, a performance at the MTV Iggy Concert which aired live in New York City’s Times Square, and accolades from critics and fans at Billboard, KEXP, and NPR alike. She also shared the stage with Ray LaMontagne at Central Park’s Summerstage and hit the road for dates with Raphael Saadiq.
