Mini bio
How it started.
Born in Malaysia and raised in Adelaide, Guy sang in a church choir and played violin as a child. After school, he taught singing and worked as a sound engineer. Winning the first Australian Idol in 2003 introduced that voice to a national audience.
Songs fans know.
His debut single was “Angels Brought Me Here”. He later teamed up with Lupe Fiasco on “Battle Scars” and represented Australia at its first Eurovision appearance in 2015. He co-wrote “Tonight Again” with David Ryan Harris and Louis Schoorl and finished fifth.
A song for a friend.
Guy wrote “Choir” while grieving his friend and musical collaborator Luke Liang. The song became a way to remember him and encourage people to look out for each other. It won Song of the Year and Best Video at the 2019 ARIA Awards.
The current chapter.
For 100 Times Around the Sun, released in August 2025, Guy wrote more than 100 songs over four years in Sydney, Bali, Nashville and Los Angeles. The finished album returns to joy and close relationships. He followed it with Home Sessions - 100X and Australian touring in 2026, alongside a judging role on The Piano.
