On the first song of her latest EP, Hatching (2023), singer-songwriter and dancer Jace Chan sang “So bye, bye, I’m sorry, I had to leave and build myself a better life.” And she couldn’t have been clearer about the new path she embarked on.

The artist who goes by Jace professionally and who appears on Tatler’s Asia Most Stylist 2024 list, independently released this record to mark significant happenings in her private and professional life. A documentary and a new song later, she sat down with Tatler to talk about how she’s changing the canto-pop scene from the inside, with experimentation, open conversations about mental health and voguing.
