Eason Chan Yick Shun (born 27 July 1974) is a Hong Kong singer and actor.[8][9][10] He is one of the most popular and influential singers in both Cantopop and Mandopop. Besides holding the record for winning the "Ultimate Male Singer - Gold" award (10 times) and "My Favorite Male Singer" award (9 consecutive years) at the "Ultimate Song Chart Awards Presentation" in HK, he is also holding the record for winning Golden Melody Awards "Best Male Mandarin Singer" (3 times) in Taiwan. Chan was ranked sixth in the 2013 Forbes China Celebrity Top 100 List.[11][12] Since joining UMG, Chan has amassed over 75 billion streams across various platforms by 2023.[13]

In 2006 Chan's Cantonese album U87 was named one of Time magazine's "Five Asian Albums Worth Buying".[14] Chan has won a number of Golden Melody Awards. In 2003, he won Best Mandarin Male Singer and Best Mandarin Album for Special Thanks To.... In 2009, he won Best Mandarin Album for Don't Want to Let Go. Chan won his second Best Mandarin Male Singer award in 2015, for the album Rice and Shine.

Chan successfully held world tours in different regions, including Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, mainland China, Southeast Asia, Europe, North America and Australia. He was the first Chinese singer who held tour in London's O2 Arena, and the first HK singer held solo concert in Beijing's National Stadium (Bird's Nest).

Chan was the most-streamed artist in Hong Kong on the Spotify music streaming platform from 2016 to 2020.[17]

Early life

Chan was born in Hong Kong on 27 July 1974. Chan went to England to study when he was 12. He attended St. Joseph's kindergarten and St. Joseph's College Primary School in Hong Kong, Dauntsey's School in Wiltshire, England and later Kingston University, studying architecture.[18][19] He also trained in vocals at the Royal Academy of Music, where he received Grade-8 vocal certifications.[20] Chan returned to Hong Kong before the completion of his degree to participate in the 1995 New Talent Singing Awards Competition, winning first place on July 16, 1995. Hong Kong-based record label Capital Artists signed a contract with him, ending his future career as an architect while launching a career in music.[21]

Career

Eason Chan in 2008

Chan has been praised by critics and fellow musicians alike as one of the top singers of his generation. Since the very beginning of his career, he has been one of the favourites to lead the new generation of Cantopop.[22] He has been described as a breath of fresh air in the HK music scene.[23][24] In the 2000s, Chan emerged as the leading male singer of his generation, fulfilling his role as an innovator and a leader in the HK music scene, winning prestigious awards one after another.[25][26][27]

Chan won many major music awards in Hong Kong, eg. Most Popular Male Singer award in the Jade Solid Gold Best Ten Music Awards Presentation twice, in 2006 and 2007.[28]

His Cantonese album U87, named after his favourite microphone and released in 2005, was labeled by Time magazine as one of the five Asian albums worth buying.[29] U87 was the top selling non-concert, non-collection category album in Hong Kong in 2005.[30] He was Hong Kong's highest selling male artist in 2002, 2003 and 2007. He has been one of Hong Kong's top selling artists every year since 2000.[31] His concert DVD Get a Life was the highest selling album of 2006.

Chan has also been successful in his work in the Mandopop scene.[32][33] He has won numerous awards in both mainland China and Taiwan, most notably Taiwan's Golden Melody Awards. He is the second non-Taiwanese singer, after Jacky Cheung, to win Taiwan's Golden Melody Awards. He won "Best Male Mandarin Singer" third, in 2003, 2015 and 2018, "Album of the Year" twice in 2003 and 2018, and "Best Mandarin Album" in 2009.

His album Admit It was nominated for Golden Melody Awards' Best Male Singer; although it was ultimately won by Gary Chaw. Next year, he was again nominated for Golden Melody Awards' Best Male Singer, for his work in Mandarin album "Don't Want To Let Go", although the award went to Jay Chou. However, Chan won Album of The Year for "Don't Want To Let Go".

Chan has won a number of Asian music awards as well. He won his first Asia Pacific's Most Popular Singer Award in 2007, and again in 2008.

Chan has been named by Chinese critics as the next God of Songs (歌神) after Jacky Cheung.[34][35] However, Eason has more than once clarified that he wishes to build his own name instead, and not just be the successor of Jacky Cheung.[36][37] Chan and Cheung sung a duet together, titled 天下太平, on the album Perfect Match, released in April 2006. Chan and Cheung collaborated on other occasions as well.

Chan played several instruments in his live concerts, including the piano, the guitar, the harmonica, and the accordion. Chan is also a songwriter.

In 2009, Chan performed in "PAX Musica 2009" in Tokyo. He sang seven songs, including a Japanese song by Koji Tamaki called "Mr. Lonely". This was his first time performing in Japan publicly. Japanese Musician Ikurō Fujiwara praised Chan for his charisma on stage and expressed hope to collaborate with Chan in the future. Chan planned to promote his musical works in Japan in 2010.

In 2011, Chan released a new Cantonese album titled "Stranger Under My Skin" on 22 February.[38] Released in November, Chan's Mandarin album titled "?" features a piano performance by his seven-year-old daughter.[39]

Chan released the《...3mm》Cantonese album on 10 August 2012 followed by a remix version of the album, titled 《...3mm Remix》releasing on 8 November 2012. It was an album by Eric Kwok and Jerald Chan in composing music, including the number one songs "Finish" (完) and "Heavy taste" (重口味). At the same time, Chan opened his own music production company, EAS Music.

In 2014, Chan received Honorary Doctor of Arts degree for accomplishments in the Cantonese music industry from Kingston University, where he studied architecture before entering the entertainment industry.[21]

In 2015, Chan released a Cantonese album Preparing 《準備中》, which contained the number one song "Unconditional" (無條件). Chan received multiple awards for the work.

In 2017, Chan released a Mandarin album, C'mon In~ , which was awarded at the 29th Golden Melody Awards for Album of the Year and Best Male Mandarin Singer. Besides holding the record for winning Best Male Mandarin Singer (tying the record of Taiwanese singer Johnny Yin), he also became the Hong Kong singer with the most awards for that category.

In 2018, Chan released album L.O.V.E. (mainly in Cantonese), which was successful in Taiwan's 30th Golden Melody Awards, winning nominations to three major awards: Song of the Year, Album of the Year, and Producer of the Year, Album. Ultimately, the album's producer, Carl Wong, won the "Producer of the Year, Album" award. This was the first time in the history of the Golden Melody Awards that a Cantonese album won this award.

Chan’s Mandarin single "Warrior of the Darkness"(Lonely Warrior 孤勇者), released in November 2021, was super hit and skyrocketed to become a phenomenon in the Mandarin music market. On top of Mandopop fans, it was exceptionally popular among the kids.[40]

More than 28 years after Chan's debut, he kept releasing new album, Chin Up!, and going on his Fear and Dreams world tour in 2023. “Homo Sapiens”, a Cantonese song from Chin Up!, was awarded at the 34th Golden Melody Awards for Best Lyrics. This was the first time that a Cantonese song won this award.

Concerts

Chan has held eight major theme concert series at the famous Hong Kong Coliseum starting from 1999. His first series of four concerts at the Coliseum, Eason's 99 Big Live, came four years after his debut in 1995. That amount of time was considered short for a new singer to gain general approval and public support needed to perform at such a prestigious venue. Two years later in 2001, Chan held a series of nine The Easy Ride concerts under the wing of his second record company, Music Plus. In 2003, he held a series of seven The Third Encounter concerts with the support of Music Plus. In the spring of 2006, after a year of rest and another change of record company, Chan held his fourth theme concert series, a total of nine Get a Life concerts. A year later, Chan broke his own record while holding his fifth series of concerts named Eason's Moving on Stage. During October and November 2007, he completed a total of 16 hugely successful Chan's Moving on Stage1 concerts.[41]

Chan embarked another series of concerts at Hong Kong Coliseum, named DUO (18 shows), Eason's Life (25 shows), and Fear and Dreams (27 shows) in 2010, 2013 and 2022 respectively. As of January 2023, Chan held over 110 concerts at Hong Kong Coliseum.

Tours

Chan began his Moving on Stage World Tour in February 2008. He traveled to Taiwan,[42] Canada, Australia, Guangzhou,[43] Shanghai,[44][45] Malaysia, Macau, Singapore, Kunming, Tianjin, Chongqing, Shenzhen, Los Angeles, San Francisco,[46] Hangzhou, Guiyang, Beijing, and Foshan. Chan's Moving on Stage World Tour ended with Eason Chan's Moving on Stage 26 at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, on 16 August 2009.[47]

Months after his Moving On Stage Concerts came to finish, Chan began another tour in mainland China, called "Ninety Minutes of Bliss". Instead of playing at grand venues, Chan played at smaller venues in order to get closer to his fans. He completed two concerts in Nanjing and three more in Shanghai before and during Christmas 2009. Two more concerts were held in Beijing on 29 and 30 May in 2010.

In between his tours, Chan held his sixth record-breaking Theme Concerts at the Hong Kong Coliseum for a total of 18 concerts, scheduled from 20 March to 6 April 2010. This new series was called Duo Eason Chan 2010 Concert (《DUO陳奕迅2010演唱會》).

After the May "Ninety Minutes of Bliss" concerts in Beijing, Chan went to Europe for his first European tour scheduled. He visited three cities over the course of 5 days: London, Manchester, and Rotterdam. The venues for the three concerts were, respectively, Royal Albert Hall, Manchester Apollo and Rotterdam Ahoy. Tickets to his London and Manchester concerts were each sold out within hours of ticket release. Chan is the second Hong Kong singer after Roman Tam to perform in the prestigious Royal Albert Hall.[48]

At Chan's concert in Beijing on 29 September 2011 at the Beijing Workers' Stadium, Faye Wong made a special guest appearance, surprising many as Wong had not previously accepted any invitations to appear as a special guest at another singer's concert; this was the first time that she did so.[49]

Continuing his Duo Eason Chan 2010 Concert World Tour, Chan made his second appearance in London, the O2 Arena on 23 April 2012.[50] He became the first Chinese artist playing in the O2 stage. The concert was sold out in twenty minutes to 12,000 fans.[51][52]

In 2015, Chan held his 100th show of Another Eason Life's World Tour in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, on 4 December 2015. This was the first time ever that a Hongkongese singer performed at the Centre Bell. The tour ended late in 2016, as he took a break from concert touring.

In September 2017, Chan began a new tour called Eason Says C mon In~ tour, which was noted for performing in small stadiums like Macpherson Stadium, Hong Kong, which could only seat about 2,500 people.[53]

On 21 November 2019, it was announced that Fear and Dreams concerts would be cancelled because of unstable circumstances in Hong Kong.[54]

Fear and Dreams tour resumed in Hong Kong Coliseum from 9 December, 2022 to January 2023, marking him performing as a solo act in the venue since Eason's Life tour in 2013. Fear and Dream world tour embarked from April 2023. The tour, so far, covered Taiwan, South East Asia, North America, Macau, and mainland China. He was the first Asian singer performing at Chase Center, San Francisco.[55]

Musical

On 18 and 19 August 2005, Chan performed the musical Wrestling with God (人神鬥), the second programme of Love Music Tour 2005 organised by Netvigator. He was the actor and producer. Stars featured in the show included famous comedian Jim Chim (詹瑞文), singer Wilfred Lau (劉浩龍), Taiwanese singer Mavis Fan (范曉萱), Best Supporting Actress Winner of the 23rd Hong Kong Film Awards Josie Ho (何超儀), pop duo at17 and Soler. The story was about the competition among different angels (played by the featured stars) to protect the only man alive in the world (played by Eason Chan). The secret guest, veteran singer George Lam (林子祥), played Chan's late father. The audience were impressed by the performers, who told the story through song and dance.

Charity work

Chan has been appointed as Orbis International's Sight Ambassador in Hong Kong since 2006. He has travelled to India and Sichuan, China, visiting kids and elders with visual impairment, to raise funds for Orbis.[56] Eason has also been an active participant in Hong Kong's fundraising campaigns such as the 2003 fundraiser for SARS victims and the 2008 fundraiser for Sichuan earthquake victims.

On 7 July 2007 Eason performed at the Chinese leg of 'Live Earth' in Shanghai.[57]

In July 2020, Chan held the online charity concert, The Live Is So Much Better With Music Eason Chan Charity Concert, at the Hong Kong Coliseum in support of the Hong Kong Live Performance and Production Industry Association. Chan performed in an empty stadium due to the COVID-19 restrictions.[58]

Personal life

In 2002, Chan suffered a severe groin injury when he fell off the stage during his concert in Taiwan. As a result, one of this testicles had to be surgically removed. He has since then fully recovered.[59]

In 2006 he married former actress Hilary Tsui (徐濠縈) with whom he has a daughter, Constance, born 2004.[60] In 2012, there was rumour about their marriage was faltering due to Tsui's drug scandal. The couple held a press conference to deny all rumours and allegations.[61]

In 2013, Chan revealed he had suffered from bipolar disorder and phobia of large crowds during the 11th night of his "Life Concert 2013".[62] In 2020, Chan has been appointed as the "Shall We Talk" initiative's ambassador to promote mental health and arouse public attention to mental well-being. His classic Canto-pop song, "Shall We Talk", has been chosen as the theme song.[63]

Support for Xinjiang-sourced cotton

On 25 March 2021, Chan's company, My Kan Wonderland Limited announced on Weibo that the company would "resolutely boycott any behaviour vilifying China" and that the company would terminate its role as a brand ambassador for Adidas, leading to public backlash against Chan.[64][65] The announcement came after Adidas and other members of the Better Cotton Initiative had publicly resolved to not use cotton sourced from Xinjiang[64][66] and also following a BBC investigation that found that Uyghur forced labor was being used in the production of cotton in the region.[65][67] The South China Morning Post reported that, after the announcement was made, Chan's Facebook page, which did not mention the boycott, was flooded with "thousands [of] comments sharply critical of the move" and that "[a]ccording to the United Nations, human rights groups and victim testimonials, China has placed at least 1 million Uygurs and other ethnic minorities in high security camps, where they are subjected to indoctrination, torture and forced labour."[64] China maintains that claims of forced labor in Xinjiang are "entirely fabricated".[65]
