Hong Kong-Born Toronto Songwriter Tennyson King Releases 100 Cities 百城 on November 9: Zhongruan, Guzheng, Erhu and Pipa Meet Indie Folk on an Album Named for His Own Name, Baak Sing
Toronto, Ontario, Canada — Hong Kong-born, Toronto-based Chinese Canadian singer-songwriter Tennyson King released his new album 100 Cities 百城 on November 9, 2026. The title is the literal English translation of his Chinese name, Baak Sing, meaning "100 Cities." The album blends Western indie folk with traditional Chinese instruments — zhongruan, guzheng, erhu, dizi, xiao and pipa — and was co-produced by King with longtime collaborator Dan Hosh, with traditional instruments recorded live, at times with portable equipment taken into the homes of Chinese musicians across Toronto.
Named tracks include "Big Mountain High 大山高," which explores his ancestry through a well-known Chinese musical story; "The Great Unknown," drawn from a near-drowning experience in Australia; and the focus track "Tiny Home," whose official music video was released alongside the album. King said the most important thing about the album is sharing more of himself and his Chinese culture, adding: "I feel 100% proud of who I am now." He described the album's main theme as self-discovery, saying people everywhere go through similar journeys of love, loss, adventure and uncertainty.
