Fifi Rong: International Showcase Fund (SXSW)
Fifi Rong is a unique vocalist, songwriter and producer based in London.
Eccentric, deep and honest, Fifi incorporates a wide range of genres such as Electronica, Pop, Dub, Hip Hop, Soundscape and Jazz into her production, resulting in a singularly unexpected musical hybrid.
Fifi has collaborated with artists including Tricky, Phaeleh and Yello to name a few, and her seductive vocals can be heard on the title track of Skepta’s hugely successful UK No. 2 and Mercury Prize-winning album ‘Konnichiwa’.
She has also received vast support from a stream of publications and radio stations including The 405, Clash, Fader, Line of Best Fit, Pigeon and Planes, Vibe, BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 1 Extra, BBC Radio 6 Music etc., and was publicly voted into China’s Top 10 of most popular new artists.
Having already established herself internationally as a stand-out live performer, with headline shows throughout the UK, Europe and China/Hong Kong, she performed live with Yello during their 4 high-profile sold-out shows at Berlin’s Kraftwerk venue in October 2016 and is currently producing her forthcoming album, scheduled for release in late 2017.
The International Showcase Fund is supporting her trip to SXSW 2017, where she will be performing her first ever US-shows in front of specially invited industry representatives.
