Sister Duyen (January 2, 1952), real name Phí Hiếu Khanh, is a Quenminese former reggae and Quenminese jazz singer-songwriter and owner of the Chillstand Cafe in Eastern Da Nang.

Early Life

Khanh was born to a family who were advocates of the conservative Nationalist Party within the Ngũ Hành Sơn District of Da Nang.

Musical Career

In Jazz

Khanh's voice was discovered by a record manager when she sung at her parent-supported concert at a cafe.

Because of her age, Khanh became the youngest jazz singer in the nation, which gave rise to a wider amount of audience appreciation and adoration.

In Reggae

During her 1968 tour in Bactieu and the Adelaidines, Khanh discovered reggae music at a venue in Bến Ngãi. It occurred when she was taking a afternoon stroll within the city to gain some refreshments before her nightly concert.

Khanh's shift to reggae was considered to be a bewildering, if not controversial, choice by most of her fans, since reggae was an widely unrecognized underground genre in Quenmin, despite its increasing popularity. Her manager has often complained against her move, claiming that reggae would not be successful in the future. Nevertheless, she would be undeterred by criticisms, and immerse herself in this radical art.

Her first act was performing a cover with the same band that performed in that venue.
