History
edit2012: Formation
editThe duo was formed in 2012. Initially, the two attended a vocal training course and were later selected to sing the theme song for local movie Kepong Gangster. The pairing worked and their then record label decided to market them as a duo instead of solo singers.[2]
2015: Moved to Taiwan and Second Album, Close To
editFollowing the success of their earlier EPs and debut 2014 full-length album, Love Temperature, the duo decided to be based in Taiwan. In 2015, the duo released their second album Close To to a lukewarm reception compared to their previous album.[2]
2017 - 2019: The Lakeside Of Yearning and return to Malaysia
editTheir third album, The Lakeside Of Yearning was released in 2017. In 2019, the duo decided to return to Malaysia because 90 percent of their music is made in Malaysia. Despite the return, Fuying & Sam still has links to a Taiwanese company which helps distribute its music.[2]
