Taiwanese singer-songwriter Song Nianyu, also known as “Xiao Yu”, has returned to the music industry following a five-year hiatus with the release of a new Sony Music album titled “Assuming You’re Still Here”. The album launch featured new tracks such as “Accident”, “The Perfect Person”, and “Little Footprint”, including a collaboration with newcomer Lan.

Following the album release, Song discussed his upcoming “No, Perfect Person” concert scheduled for November 7 at the Taipei Music Center. He noted that preparations are approximately 70% to 80% complete and the setlist is largely finalized. 

Song described a shift in his musical production, prioritizing raw emotions and natural breathing over technical perfection. Additionally, he announced that the new album will be released in a commemorative vinyl format rather than on traditional CDs.
