TIA RAY

TIA RAY (袁娅维), born December 12, 1984, in Hunan, China, is a soulful R&B powerhouse known for blending modern Mandopop with jazz and neo-soul influences. The singer-songwriter gained fame after appearing on *Singer 2020*, where her smoky vocals and genre-bending style won over audiences. Her recent releases like "BALANCE" and "COLOR BLIND" showcase her knack for sultry grooves and emotional lyrics, while tracks like "敢" (BYD's 30th anniversary theme song) prove her versatility across commercial projects. TIA’s collaborations with international artists and experimental approach have solidified her status as one of China’s most innovative contemporary vocalists.

With a career spanning over a decade, she’s evolved from underground jazz clubs to stadium tours, all while maintaining her signature laid-back cool. Songs like "路过窗台的猫" (featured in the film *负负得正*) and the dreamy "那未曾想过的与你相逢的夏天" highlight her ability to craft soundtracks for life’s quiet, cinematic moments. Whether she’s delivering intimate ballads or dancefloor-ready bops, TIA RAY keeps pushing boundaries in Chinese pop music.
