Dave Wang

Before landing his first record deal in 1988, Wang wrote songs for other singers under pen-names such as "Little Grass" and "Northern Wind".

He worked as a Tae Kwon Do instructor, ice-skating coach, taxi-driver, delivery-man, waiter, bartender, and cook.

He also spent three years in the Taiwanese military to obtain a Taiwan ID card, despite holding a Hong Kong British passport.

Altogether, he had released a total of five Mandarin albums in just a period of two years at Pony Canyon with notable hits like "I Love You (我愛你)".

On 1 January 1999, Wang made a comeback in the Hong Kong music industry and signed a recording contract with Emperor Entertainment Group.

After his 10-year contract with EEG expired, Wang held his 'I am Back' Concert on 23 October 2009 at the Hong Kong Coliseum.

[4] His music and lyrics can be described as being melancholy and haunting in a blend of rock, ballads and blues, which is attributed to his impoverished and tough upbringing.
