Nicholas Teo (Traditional Chinese: 張棟樑; Simplified Chinese: 张栋梁; pinyin: Zhāng Dòngliáng; born November 29, 1981), also known as Nicholas Zhang, is a Malaysian singer signed under Play Music. Before returning to Malaysia, Nicholas was studying in Taiwan; where he won the Best Singer in a competition among all the Taiwan Universities. Thereafter, he was approached and asked if he would sign up with a company as a back-up singer (backing vocalist, to harmonize with the lead vocalist); which Nicholas subsequently ignored. He returned to Malaysia without finishing his studies and participated in the singing competition “2002 Astro Talent Quest”. Nicholas won first place with the song黃昏(Huanghun) originally sung by Zhou Chuan Xiong. This led to Nicholas signing a contract in Taiwan with Music Street in 2003. On June 18, 2004 he released his first album 首选张栋梁 (“1st Choice Nicholas”). Music Street eventually merged with Warner Music, and it should be noted that Play Music is a record label subsidiary of Singaporean company Musicstreet Pte Ltd. In 2006, Nicholas received the 2006 Hito Newcomer Award in Taiwan. close
