Olyyn Thanasingh is embracing his heritage while pushing the modern sound of pop music to new heights. The seasoned singer was born and raised in Germany but his parents originated from Sri Lanka, and the culture they instilled upon him would eventually shape his artistry. He soaked up the Tamil culture and sound while also keeping track of popular American genres such as R&B and hip-hop. Olyyn draws his inspirations from a wide variety of artists including A.R. Rahman, Michael Jackson and many more.
Over time Olyyn has established himself as a multi-cultural artist with genuine love for music and a passion to utilize it and cross genres while embracing his Tamil culture along the way. Olyyn is working on his debut album entitled “Dr. Kadhal,” which embodies his determination and sheer talent in the clearest way possible. Olyyn Thanasingh is ready to spread his words farther than ever before, and hopes you will be one of the many to hear them! We decided to catch up with Olyyn for an interview..
