Kien who?


Hi, it's Kien Lim. Yes, you know me (well, those who do!) as David Lim. The reason behind the switch from my English name to my Chinese one is simple. A friend here in London started calling me and introducing me by my Chinese name as he prefered it and it stuck. I got used to it and now like it.

What do I do now? I've just embarked on a new career of singer/songwriter (started singing in 2003) and am now busking (the last 10 months or so) for a living in the subways of London. That's how Vincent Koh bumped into me. I was busking at Leicester Square Tube station when I saw a familiar face. He didn't recognize me though!

Busking just about pays the bills and I am looking to take my musical career to the next stage. So if anybody happens to have any ideas, gigs, or just happens to own a record company or happens to be a shit hot manager, please contact me. Oh, you can keep up with my ramblings on the news page of my website http://www.kienlim.com/. You can hear my music there or on www.myspace.com/kienx. I'm gonna be playing at Marcel's Rogue Festival this March.

I am unmarried with no kids that I know of.

Anyway, got to go to the loo now. Later.......
