Glenn Fredly Deviano Latuihamallo (30 September 1975 – 8 April 2020[1]), known professionally as Glenn Fredly, was an Indonesian R&B singer and songwriter. Entering the music industry after winning a singing contest in 1995, he released more than 10 albums. He produced new talented artists like female vocalist Yura and male soloist Gilbert Pohan. He also produced Cahaya Dari Timur: Beta Maluku. In 2013, he served as a coach for The Voice Indonesia.

Early life

Fredly was born on 30 September 1975 to Hengky and Linda Latuihamallo. He was the first of five children.[2][3] Fredly was of Moluccan descent.[4]

Career

In 1995, he won the Cipta Pesona Bintang singing contest.[2] That same year, he joined the rock band Funk Section.[3] The following year, he was a finalist in the Asia Song Festival.[2] In 1998, Fredly left Funk Section to be a solo R&B singer, feeling that it suited his vocal style better. He released his first album, GLENN, that year. It was relatively well received, selling 50 thousand copies; R&B was generally not popular in Indonesia at the time.[3]

In 2000, Fredly released his second solo album, Kembali (Return), with the single "Kasih Putih" ("White Love") receiving much airplay.[3] In 2001, he placed third in the Russian Asia Dauzy International Song Festival.[2]

He married singer Dewi Sandra in Uluwatu, Bali on 3 April 2006. Glenn filed for divorce in 2009.[5]

In March 2009, Fredly was one of the main performers in a tribute concert to deceased Indonesian singer Chrisye during the Java Jazz Festival.[6] That same year, he performed tribute concerts to Michael Jackson in five cities throughout Indonesia, covering Jackson's hit songs.[2]

In 2011, he joined with Tompi and Sandhy Sondoro to perform a set of concerts under the name Trio Lestari (The Eternal Trio).[7]

Fredly celebrated his 17th anniversary in the music business with a sold-out concert in front of 7,500 people at Istora Gelora Bung Karno on 2 September 2012.

In 2014, he entered film producing with the film Cahaya Dari Timur: Beta Maluku, which received the best movie award from the Indonesian Film Festival.

Death

Fredly died on 8 April 2020 at the age of 44 in Jakarta. It was reported that his cause of death was meningitis.[8] He is survived by his wife for 7.5 months (married on 19 August 2019), the 25-year-old Mutia Ayu, and their 40-day-old daughter Gewa Atlana Syamayim Latuihamallo, who was born on 28 February 2020.

Influences

Fredly credited Michael Jackson as being one of his influences, saying that Jackson inspired him "through his music, his style, his dancing, everything". He also credited Jackson's humanitarian work for inspiring his own charitable work.[2] He also admired Marvin Gaye and Quincy Jones,[3] and was a fan of Chrisye.[6]
