In Japan, she became a member of a Japanese pop (J-pop) group called Mirai, before she released her bestselling debut, “A Girl Meets Bossa Nova” at only 19. With her sultry, soulful, pristine and innocent vocals, she reinterprets Frank Sinatra such as “Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars” and other jazz and pop numbers. She is one of the new wave of Singapore talent being exported internationally. So far, Olivia is the only pop sensation exported exclusively to Japan, previous stars such as Kit Chan, Tanya Hsu, Stefanie Sun, Michelle Saram, Michelle Chong etc, have only been exporting to the Greater Chinese market through Hong Kong and Taipei.
