Hardy Mirza
|

A perfect pitch, a mesmerizing voice coupled with the boy-next-door charms… these qualities epitomize Hady Mirza.
Exuding an incomparable charismatic aura, Hady has proven himself worthy of garnering the title of Singapore Idol 2006. In addition to a self-titled debut album that has already hit platinum status within 1 month of sales, SingPost has also recognized his achievements by commissioning a set of self-image stamps for him. Rather than bathe in past glory, the singer has been actively self-penning for his second album, hoping to inspire the audience with his music.
Not forgetting the less fortunate, Hady, demonstrating a personal resiliency equal to that of his professional life, has also became a very public advocate for charity through involvement in events for beneficiaries including MILK, Minds etc. |
