Dikyi Ukyab (Tsewang Dikyi Ukyab)
'''


 * 

Born in Kings County Hospital, Brooklyn on March 31st, 1991 to a Nepalese mother and a Tibetan father. 19 year old New York City native, Tsewang Dikyi Ukyab is an aspiring singer-songwriter, touching many hearts with lyrics expressing her innermost feelings and a beautifully charming voice.

In pursuit of a greater education, she is currently a freshman student at State University of New York Purchase College, as a Political Science major and an Anthropology minor, while still being involved with music.

Dikyi's interests lie in political activism, music, fashion, art, poetry, and humanitarian work. She is involved with non profit organizations such as SFT (Students For A Free Tibet). Being half Tibetan, she grew up in a politically aware environment and has been an avid advocator for the Tibetan cause. She hopes to raise awareness for a greater independence in Tibet with her music.

In the summer of 2009 she began recording a Nepalese album, release date yet to be announced. Dikyi is also in the process of creating her an English EP and has released a preview of it with her single "Disappear". Dikyi also features on tracks by MOAMENT. Dikyi uses her youtube channel or myspace page for news updates, covers, originals, and live performances.
