Biography

Lau was born and raised in Ipoh, where he lived for 8 years before permanently moving to Kuala Lumpur. He began playing the piano when 3 years old, under the guidance of his mother. Lau, at 11 years old, became the youngest in Malaysia to reach Grade 8 in the ABRSM graded piano exam.[1]

Lau also took up violin lessons when he was 8 years old. By the age of 15, he obtained the ATCL Diploma, and within the following years, he was awarded for his outstanding performance for his LTCL and FTCL exams.

After secondary studies, he decided to further his education in music, citing that he was "bad in his academics" and since his interests gravitated more towards the arts, "music was the only thing" that he could "pass".[2]
