You must be scratching your head right now. Who the heck is she? Why did I feature her in pink @ music. I managed to dig some story about her and i heard her music...
Born as Shaina Wan Zahid in Malaysia, attended Bukit Bintang Girls School, familiar face in local theatre scene, faces for some notable commercial such as Nokia, Dove, Coca Cola, Nestle Ice Cream and others. During her hey day, she and her sister Sarah, hosted a program called Speak Up, air on TV3. Get it?
Still no? Well, that is because Shayna has moved to Big Apple to try her pursue her passion in music. Her debut album was launched at The Blue Wave at Boston in Feb 18th, 2006 and the title of the album is Beyond Borders.
When I listened to her, her sultry voice reminded me of old jazz singers. She wrote all the 11 songs. Pretty ambitious for a newbies but then, she pulled it off with the music, thanks to her boyfriend, Jay Deasel who also looking after the aspect of music, production and technicality of this album.
I wonder whether this album will be in Malaysian music stores in the near future? Hopefully someone bold enough to bring this album in. In the meantime, you can get her album by purchasing it online.
