"Music Tuesdays" are my favorite days to go on Youtube. I’m always discovering new music artists with incredible and diverse talents. One of my favorites is Zee Avi.“Zee Avi is just 23 but she’s an old soul. A huge talent in a petite frame bringing a universal message from the unlikely birthplace of Borneo, an ancient island east of Malaysia which remains an untouched, natural paradise, an apt description of her songs.”
Kantoi (a song Avi sings in “Manglish”) conveys her unique use of self-expression linguistically. Her music is a combination of classic sounds like Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee and Doris Day. Instruments such as the ukelele, the trumpet and the guitar add a vintage flair to her songs style. She is great to listen to on a rainy day.
Zee Avi is unique in her pursuit of fame. Most of her original videos recorded on Youtube were angled so that her face remained hidden. “It’s because I would like viewers to focus more on the songs…” she says.
