Rockstarosity
"The band exudes rockstarosity, thrilling sold-out bar circuit crowds with a sound and package that some have compared to Britpop legends like Coldplay and Radiohead." - StirTV

Born in Taipei, Taiwan, Johnny Hi-Fi moved to America while still in his teens. He and his brother, Asian pop star Kevin Hsu (Golden Point/BMG, Taiwan), started out in Houston, Texas but Johnny Hi-Fi eventually relocated to Austin, where he developed as both a songwriter and performer in the "Live Music Capital of the World." It was there that the Austin Music Network dubbed him an "impeccably dressed walking fashion statement." Recently, Johnny Hi-Fi opened for Taiwan's multi-platinum selling rocker Chang Cheng Yue for his October 2004 "Kill Kitty" tour through New York, Boston and Philadelphia promoted by the House of Blues.

Seven years and more than 200 regional shows later he left Texas in 1999 for New York City, a location better suited for his unique blend of "Asian Brit-Pop" that has been compared to Coldplay, Radiohead, Jeff Buckley and Weezer. Upon his arrival in New York, "Passive Killer" was licensed by Rock Music Group (Taiwan) and recorded by Chinese pop star Richie Jen (Rock Music Group, Taiwan). This recording representing Johnny Hi-Fi's first musical exposure in his home country.

Over 300 performances from New York City to Los Angeles, appearing on PBS' Texas Music Café and StirTV television programs, and earning multiple "Track of the Day" awards on GarageBand.com, Johnny Hi-Fi is now an acclaimed writer, producer and performer; his solo exploits receiving the long-awaited attention they deserve.

In 2005, Johnny Hi-Fi released their newest album "Sad Stories", and toured Asia supporting its release. As soon as Johnny Hi-Fi returned to America, they hosted 2 premiere episodes of "Live From" and "Top 10 Chi Countdown" for MTV Chi, and is one of the very first artist to be featured on MTV Chi. Johnny Hi-Fi is also scheduled to start their very own US tour in 2006, reaching out to fans who've only seen the band on television or heard them on the radio.
