The shape of music and the path to stardom is changing, and there are few examples of this better than Australian pop star William Singe. He took the modern route to fame by using reality television and social media to grow his fanbase. But there is no bad way to achieve fame and success, as long as you get there, and Singe has definitely gotten there. He’s amassed countless fans in both Australia and throughout the world. That means when Singe tours, he performs in all corners of the world, so fans need to take advantage of every opportunity they get to see Singe whenever he comes to their corner of the globe.

Collective Castaway

Singe got his start as a member of the boy band The Collective, which finished second on the fourth season of The X Factor Australia. The group only spent a few years together, releasing half a dozen successful singles and one album that went gold before parting ways. That success with The Collective helped to give Singe a little credibility and experience, opening the door for him to go his own way. Of course, his own way meant Singe was singing covers of songs in his home. While an unconventional path to fame, his covers struck a chord with fans, earning him tens of millions of streams on Spotify and millions of followers on social media. In today’s world, the industry took notice, leading to a worldwide tour in 2016 and Singe signing a record deal in 2017.

More Than the King of Covers

Initially, Singe was known primarily for performing covers of other popular songs. Of course, he put such a unique spin on them that he made them completely his own, making fans the familiarity of a song they already knew but with a completely new twist they never saw coming. After gaining popularity as a cover artist, Singe was able to branch out into original songs and collaborations with other artists. He’s now able to give his fans a mix of original songs and unique covers, making him one of the most exciting and unpredictable performers to see live, albeit in the most unconventional of ways.
