Sister Duyen (January 2, 1960), 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 1971 tour in Bactieu and the Adelaidines, Khanh discovered reggae music at a venue in Bến Ngãi.
Khanh's move 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.
