BIOGRAPHY
Crowd Lu is a Taiwanese indie singer, songwriter, and composer. He is also referred to as Vitas Lu after making a parody of the song Opera No. 2 by the Russian singer Vitas. Due to a serious car accident in his first year at Tamkang University, Lu began learning to play guitar during his hospitalization. The following year, Lu won first prize for musical composition and solo performance at Tamkang University and proceeded to once again take the gold in composition and become the crowd favorite at National Chengchi University. Only a mere year later, in 2009, Lu faced a similar pattern of success at the 20th Golden Melody Awards, as he walked away with the “Best Newcomer” and “Best Composer” awards.

Crowd Lu was raised in a household rich with culture and focused on the arts in Tainan City, Taiwan. His mother was a lover and collector of Western jazz records, which sparked a similar—if not greater—musical interest within Lu at a very young age. The glimmer of Lu’s talent was apparent as he would belt out the songs of Whitney Houston and Michael Jackson only after listening to them once or twice. Lu’s grandmother also contributed to his musical versality. His grandmother was a fan of local Taiwanese dramas and would sing theme songs from these dramas to Lu and his sister to coax them to sleep. It was most likely at this time that Lu developed his signature style- carefree, sincere, and youthful.

In his freshman year at Tamkang University, Lu was run over by a bus and suffered severe injuries in both legs. As a result, Lu spent months in the hospital, during which he picked up the guitar and experimented with musical composition. The following year, Lu won first prize for musical composition and solo performance at a Tamkang University singing contest and proceeded to once again take the gold in composition and to become the crowd favorite at a similar contest at National Chengchi University. Lu caught the eye, and ears, of prominent music record producer Zhong Cheng Hu, and, with Zhong, produced three singles. Of them, “Good Morning, Beautiful Dawn!” appeared on the Taiwan Musical Society’s Top Ten Singles in 2007. By mere word of mouth, Lu sold 15,000 CD’s of his singles.

In late 2006, for a little more than a year, Lu toured all of Taiwan, hopping from diners to universities, and created a huge following, especially among university students.

In 2008, Lu ended his tour with 100 concerts and, on May 25, came out with his first CD 100 Ways of Living. Filled with the simple honesty of everyday life, 100 Ways of Living topped the charts and altered the course of the heavily Mando-pop musical industry and taste in all of Asia dramatically.

On August 23, 2008, Lu had his own first official concert, only 88 days after his hit CD came out.
