The Chengdu International Sister…

How do you listen to music today? CDs via your walkman (remember those?!), vinyls or streaming? In today's world, listening to music means streaming on platforms that offer countless access to albums, libraries and playlists! Some may argue that the…

Long story short, I was classically trained in piano from the age of 6 completing up to the Performers ARCT Diploma Royal Conservatory Music Program (like any other Asian kid). Then the discovery of Alicia Keys in the summer of…

My sweater says "Nope. Still Don't Care". I wore this for my #Connections EP album back in 2017 but the difference between now and then, is that today I literally exude the attitude of the sweater and wear it with…

June is my birthday month. I never make a "big deal" about my birthday as I see it as just another regular day but this year I wanted to do something special - for you! Ruminating on ideas as I…

Ride Or Die - this was not the single that I had originally wanted to release as my first in the new year. In fact I didn't know that I would write a song like this until inspiration hit me…

With more and more musicians and artists taking the independent route, one of the best strategies in expanding our audience…

We are all people pleasers to a certain degree – some more so than others. It is normal for us to want to feel liked, fit in, be accepted and feel part of a community. However when we start to…

This is hands down the 2nd most difficult photo shoot that I was a part of. The first one was last year in the middle of winter for my #CONNECTED LP cover shoot when I had to shoot in -28…

Natalia Chai Music will be taking a new, refined, simple and cleaner turn. In addition to my new and smoother sound, I am taking myself as an artist, a musician and a business more seriously. I never understood the importance…
