Tata Young as Thailand’s very own pop sensation, Thai Super Star Tata Amita Marie Young was born in Thailand on December 14, 1980, the only daughter of an American father and a Thai mother. In a childhood filled with singing and dancing, Tata beat 5,300 other children to be crowned winner of the International Division of the nationwide Thailand Junior Singing Contest at the tender age of 11.

Tata’s debut English album with Columbia Records “I Believe” hit 9x platinum in her home country; achieved the amazing feat of selling over 300,000 units in Japan as a new artist; and struck Gold in many Asian countries. “I Believe” went on to sell nearly 1 million units across the Asian region. During the same year, Tata also sang the theme song to the Bollywood blockbuster film, Dhoom, whose OST album sold over 800,000 units in India, a phenomenal success for a soundtrack. At 25, this 10-year music veteran has already sold more than 12 million albums and continues to be a symbol of energy and change for the Asian music industry

Now comes “Temperature Rising”, Tata’s 2nd full length English album and the one to help her spread her talent to the world. The album features scorching 1st single “El Nin-YO!” which hit #1 in all major charts in Thailand upon release. Just back from a hugely successful launch in Japan, “Temperature Rising” has already shipped 50,000 units and is well on the road to another success in the world’s #2 music market. Listen to the album and Tata’s sincerity and belief in her music shines through brightly.

Tata has modeled and endorsed top-notch brands such as Fuji Film and Yamaha motorcycles, Colgate and Pepsi and has been the cover girl many times over on many international media and magazines around the region. In 1997, Elle Magazine named her one of Thailand’s “10 Most Influential People” and Asiaweek selected Tata as one of 25 most influential trendsetters in Asia in 1998. In 2001, Tata was featured on the cover of Time Magazine in their study of successful Eurasians in Asia.
