WFMT: NICHOLAS PHAN - A 21st CENTURY TENOR

Hear the Impromptu.

NPR named him their “Favorite New Artist” in 2011. This tenor is completely comfortable in his shoes as artist, public figure, and regular guy; treating his fan base as an extension of his own friends. His blogs are personal in a way that inspires other singers confronting similar challenges, from head colds to stage fright. Using the name “Grecchinois” in honor of his Greek and Chinese heritage (he was raised Greek Orthodox in Ann Arbor, Michigan), he tweets about his life on the road, celebrating art in communities around the globe, while reacting to ordinary things with a wry sense of humor.
