Shun Ng ~ Biography
"When I first heard Shun Ng, I was dazzled by his
technique & captivated by his guitar groove... I quickly
realized that his music has that special quality, the
dream of all musicians, the natural ability to touch
the heart of the listener."
- Tuck Andress
From the cotton fields in Mississippi, a cry. A cry that touched the heart and inspired the soul of Shun Ng. A wave of sorrow and blessing came over him; from heart to fingers to strings, the ability to weep.
Born in Illinois, raised in Singapore. Shun was struck by the Blues at the age of 16. He played the guitar as much as he could in local Singapore pubs, jamming with the industries veterans every week. Just a year later, Shun stepped back into Chicago, home of electric blues and traded licks with the headliners of the blues scene in the legendary Chicago blues clubs.
Over the years, his music developed from The Blues to Soul, Funk, Jazz, Rock & Roll and Pop. He soon created a daring new rhythmic style of playing the acoustic guitar incorporating percussion, horn lines, funk bass and ghost notes, venturing into the world of solo fingerstyle guitar. He soon discovered how to control the bass with his thumb, accent the harmony with his other four fingers and play drums with his palm, all simultaneously.
Along side his passionate vocals and solo guitar work, Shun is known for being energetic and charismatic performer, with every performance a unique experience.
In 2012, Shun Ng released his debut album, entitled "Funky Thumb Stuff" with percussive vocals and groovy solo acoustic arrangements, the album was well received by many acoustic guitar lovers and musicians around the world.
Shun is also very active in social work and is the Director of Music, for The Amber Initiative. He has organized concerts such as Legacy 2011 and has produced, written and performed music to raise funds for various charitable foundations around the world.
