Beginning his writing career as an intensely shy six year-old, it was a reluctant Krishane who was persuaded to join the school choir at the age of 11. Dubbed the ‘melodic bird’ by his music teacher, he was approached to join The Teardrops, a boy band made up of talented singers from the choir. The five- piece enjoyed some local success in Jamaica during their early teens, but when Krishane turned 16, he decided he needed to be a solo artist. After graduating from high school with first class honours, eventually Krishane was introduced to the production and publishing company, 1 2 One Entertainment, based in the UK. From there he was introduced to record selling producers and writers to help fine tune and develop his musical craft.
