Singer Kieu Nga
A week after emergency surgery for a stroke at a hospital in San Jose (California), singer Kieu Nga – once known as the “Queen of New Wave” – remains in a deep coma. At the age of 65, she suddenly collapsed while still full of passion for the stage, her singing, and music lovers both at home and abroad.
Singer Kieu Nga - a quiet, persistent voice
The sad news shocked the music community overseas and in the country. Colleagues were surprised because singer Kieu Nga has long been no longer just an entertainer, but for many, she is a part of memory, the gentle sound of a regretful youth.

Born in 1960 in Saigon – Ho Chi Minh City, singer Kieu Nga entered the singing career from the school performances of Le Quy Don School, where she attended high school. Being the younger sister of famous singer Elvis Phuong – a powerful male singer of the youth music scene before 1975, singer Kieu Nga chose a different path for herself: softer, sadder, and deeper. She did not make noise, did not create scandals, just quietly went through the times with her own singing voice.
From the mid-1980s to the early 1990s, the name Kieu Nga was associated with New Wave music - a music trend with European and American influences that was trendy at that time - but she and her companions such as Ngoc Lan, Trung Hanh, Chung Tu Luu... breathed into it the soul of overseas Vietnamese audiences living in the US. Thanks to that, music became closer and touched the hearts of audiences both domestically and overseas, especially French and American songs with Vietnamese lyrics.
