About the artist

AGA (English name Agatha Kong), a Hong Kong female singer-songwriter, was born on January 21, 1988, and grew up in Hong Kong. The English name Agatha is the name of a Catholic saint, given by the priest of AGA's childhood.

AGA grew up with music, and plays the piano, the guitar and sings. From childhood AGA hoped to study music abroad when grown and to become a concert pianist, and after Form Five applied to be a flight attendant at Dragonair, planning to work for two years, earn the tuition, and then go abroad. In 2008, after three years as a flight attendant, AGA studied piano and composition with 羅尚正, and performed in restaurants in spare time. The Chinese Wikipedia gives two accounts of how AGA came to know 舒文. One says that while performing in a restaurant AGA met Anthony Fernandes, Jacky Cheung's drummer, was introduced by Anthony to 舒文, and handed 舒文 a demo AGA had written. The other says AGA had known Ted Lo from childhood through AGA's father, and through an introduction came to know 舒文. After coming to know 舒文, AGA began writing demos for this Hong Kong music producer. While studying composition with 舒文, 舒文 asked AGA to hand in two or three demos a month. AGA could not keep both the job and the songwriting, and in the end decided to give up the flight-attendant work and put everything into a career as a singer-songwriter.
