About the artist
Crowd Lu, a Taiwanese singer-songwriter and actor, was born on July 15, 1985. In 2003 Crowd Lu graduated from Kang Ming Senior High School in Tainan and went north to enter the Department of Electrical Engineering at Tamkang University.
In the first year of university, after being hospitalized in an accidental car crash, Crowd Lu began to take up the guitar, and the next year won both the songwriting prize and the solo prize at Tamkang University's 金韶獎 creative-song contest, then won the creative-category championship and the popularity prize at National Chengchi University's 金旋獎; in between, Crowd Lu transferred from electrical engineering to Spanish. Record producer 鍾成虎 described Crowd Lu as "a musical prodigy who had been run over by a bus" and decided to work together.
From the end of 2006, Crowd Lu toured breakfast shops, campus guitar clubs, record stores and men's dormitories at universities around Taiwan. According to album notes from 添翼創越工作室, over a little more than a year there were an Eslite tour; the tour "搖滾早餐店巡迴", which drew a police ticket; the tour "我愛唱片行巡迴", meant to cheer up record shops in a slump; the tour "我愛吉他社巡迴演出", at the invitation of guitar clubs at more than twenty universities; and many live-house shows, nearly 100 shows in all. In 2008 a video imitating Vitas, uploaded to YouTube, quickly drew Taiwanese media attention; in May that year the album "100種生活" was released.
On April 30, 2009, Crowd Lu held the concert "我爱办公室" at the MSN Taiwan office and the Chinese Professional Baseball League office; the same year Crowd Lu won Best New Artist and Best Composer at the 20th Golden Melody Awards. On February 20, 2010 Crowd Lu held a concert at the Kowloonbay International Trade & Exhibition Centre in Hong Kong, and on February 3, 2012 published the book "我是盧廣仲！耶：100種熱血生活週記".
On February 25, 2013, Crowd Lu enlisted for a year of substitute service, assigned to the Department of Social Affairs of the Ministry of the Interior; by discharge, government reorganization had already turned that unit into the Social and Family Affairs Administration of the Ministry of Health and Welfare. Crowd Lu was discharged on February 25, 2014, held a concert at Taipei Arena in March, and sang again on Yangmingshan on January 7, 2015. A 2016 report by Central News Agency said that after discharge Crowd Lu once hit a creative block and a low point, and so walked alone from Taipei back to Tainan, taking 11 days and more than 435,000 steps.
In 2017 Crowd Lu joined the Qseries theater project, playing 鄭花甲, and in 2018 won Best Leading Actor in a Drama Series and Best Potential Newcomer in a Drama Series, among other prizes, at the 53rd Golden Bell Awards for that role. Crowd Lu also won Best Original Film Song at the 57th Golden Horse Awards and Song of the Year at the 32nd Golden Melody Awards for "刻在我心底的名字", and in 2020 was named one of the 58th Ten Outstanding Young Persons of the Republic of China (culture and the arts).
