Linda’s passion for entertainment started when she was 10 years old, she loved listening to old Khmer songs by Sin Sysamouth, Rous Sereysothea, Meng Keo Pichenda, Touch Srey Nich, Him Sivorn and many more famous Cambodian and American singers. Linda cannot read Khmer but because she wanted to sing in Khmer she used Khmer/English to help her with memorizing the lyrics. She was discovered in Australia by a local Cambodian band when she was 14 years old and she had performed at many events. Linda received an award in 1998 from a prestigious singing school in Australia, however life took Linda on a different path for several years not long after she received the award.

 

Linda put her career on hold to focus on her family for a while, which is when she gave birth to her beautiful daughter Veronica born in 2001. Veronica is also very passionate about music and hopes to one day become a musical inspiration in the footsteps of her mother.
