With over 15 years of music and songwriting experience, Fym Summer has since released 2 EPs entitled Heart (2015) and Luna (2017) as well as 2 singles, Truth (2016) and July (2015). These records have received numerous positive feedback from renowned music critics such as Kevin Matthews, and have been featured on radio stations 938Live and Lush 99.5FM.
In 2015, Fym Summer was featured as one of the singer-songwriters in Noise Singapore by National Arts Council (NAC). During this music mentorship programme, she worked with veteran musical artists such as singer-DJ Vanessa Fernandez (Vandetta), guitarist Randolf Arriola, and Leonard Soosay from Snakeweed Studios.
In 2016, she travelled to London to perform her works at the Royal Academy of Music. That same year, Fym Summer became a part of the UN Women's 16 Days Of Activism campaign, which strove to galvanize action to end violence against women, and delivered riveting performances of her own songs Truth and This Girl. Fym Summer was also a part of the CITY65 Music’s “The Living Room Sessions”, which was featured on The Straits Times and JUICE magazine.
She recorded her sophomore EP Luna in 2017 with a local music producer and continues to perform at various music featured shows and events. She’s also a registered artist of The Composers and Authors Society of Singapore (COMPASS).
Fym Summer is the only Singaporean musical artist invited to perform at the renowned South By Southwest (SXSW) Music Festival in Texas in March this year. She has also been invited to perform at Canada’s Music Week (CMW) in Toronto in May.
