21 years old,Samual Tsui aka Sam Tsui is Chinese American new youtube sensation definitely starting making waves not only on the internet but also on radio waves. I heard his duet of cover song 'Just A Dream' with Christina Grimmie last night on RedFM. A local Malaysia radio station, half a world away from North America! Currently his songs are on Itunes, distributed independent label.

He currently in the mid of completing his study in Greek Classical from Yale University in 2011,Apparently his producer/colllaborator Kurt Schneider attends the same university, together both of them not only recorded series of cover version videos, but also original composition songs which they uploaded on youtube.



I love all of his personal rendition of the cover songs. He totally made it his own. Giving a new life to those songs. Britney Spear's dance track 'hold it against me' sounded soulful with classical piano and minimal touches from electronic keyboard.



You cannot hate but to love his rendition of Fireworks & Grenade medley, a smooth transition of vocal adaption in blending both the song from katy perry and Bruno Mars and listening to his version listening shift his vocal chord at ease is entertaining and addictive at the same time!

Comparing to other youtube 'singers', Sam Tsui are one of those few talents who have strong vocal with melodic vocal delivery in both ballad and fast song. Luckily he has Kurt Schneider with him making all the remake of the cover version song sound above average.
His creativity doesn't stop at singing, Sam also love to paint and his works are amazing!


With TV appearances pouring in(which includes Ellen & Oprah) and more new fans started to notice him, by middle 2011 im sure you gonna see more and more Sam Tsui everywhere! Sam has just recently uploaded his new video 'start again', a well 'independently' produced music video which was directed by Kurt Schneider.
