Minh Chanh was born in Saigon, Viet Nam on October 12th, 1980. He left Viet Nam at the age of eight to reside in Southern California. During his childhood, he loved to listen to music and practice martial arts. After high school, he began to take music more seriously by taking music theory, guitar lessons, song writing and voice classes at community colleges and Cal State Fullerton. He was invited to sing at Cal State Fullerton Culture Night for three consecutive years. Afterward, he was asked by Instructor Luan Vu to sing with the Traditional Lac Hong Group. After that, Jenny Hien introduced him to sing at Ritz, a night club in Orange County, CA. During Johnny Dung’s Show, Quoc Viet invited him to sing a song to promote his show for the next day. Coincidently, a prominent Musician Dong Son discovered him after his singing. He began to cooperate with Tinh Music Productions. His dream is to be able to publish his own songs and have a small music production to support the Vietnamese culture and motivate a younger generation to be more involved in the Vietnamese entertainment industry. He worked full-time as a project engineer at Freeway 710 in Southern California. He then relocated to work in Santa Cruz (Route 1) and Tracy (Route 205) for six months. A marine construction engineering firm recruited him to work in the Port of Long Beach and Los Angeles and the infamous Catalina Island. Right now, he is a graduate student at Cal State Fullerton to pursue his Master Degree in Civil Engineering. He has just released his first album, “Vang Trang Khong Sang”. This album is consisted of twelve songs that he wrote (with the assistance of Lyricist Vu Dinh Luan) and a bonus DVD music video featuring song, “Vang Trang Khong Sang”.
