About
"I.Con Twins is the ultimate mover and shaker! They are a dynamic duo." - Saadia Usmani, BBC Host & RTHK "I.Con Twins are all about 'Setting Fires' to unconventional expectations." - SCMP Media
I.Con Twins is a Chinese-Canadian singer-songwriter, performing harmony duo, consisting of Calvina Poon & Carmina Poon from Calgary, Canada. They perform in English, Cantonese and Mandarin. I.Con Twins stands for 'I am CONfident.' As long as we have confidence in ourselves, we can achieve anything! I.Con Twins writes Conscious Pop music to empower their listeners to confidently embrace their authentic selves. In 2016, the duo sacrificed their soaring banking careers in Calgary and moved to Hong Kong to pursue their music dream from scratch. Since then, they've moved back to Calgary and travel between Canada and Hong Kong for music. They've performed at MGM Resorts International, competed at The Voice of China HK, performed at Hong Kong's Queen Elizabeth Stadium, MacPherson Stadium and various corporate events and festivals in Calgary. In 2019, they self-launched their debut single, "Setting Fires" on one of Hong Kong's largest broadcasting stations, RTHK. Within a year of their debut release, "Setting Fires" was awarded "Motivational Act of the Year" in the UK along with becoming the top 5 finalists in the "2020 YYCMA People's Choice Music Award" in Calgary. In 2022, they received the "Hottest Singer-songwriter Female Group" award from Hong Kong's SSP Alliance Music Charts in honor of their achievements in the music industry. In 2023, they released their first single, "The Hero Inside" from their forthcoming Neo-Chinese Conscious Pop debut mini album. With their Chinese-Canadians bi-cultural identity, their new music further portrays their authentic artistry and artistic growth with a fresh sound that aims to bridge the Eastern and Western cultures by connecting traditional Chinese instruments and contemporary Pop with English Conscious lyrics that empower listeners to awaken their authentic selves. They performed their new single at Contemporary Calgary art gallery with 800+ audiences and traveled to Los Angeles to showcase their new music with RAW Los Angeles: In Loving Colors Art Show. Through their inspiring story, original music, creativity in content creation and authenticity that connect people, they amassed an online community of 19K+ followers on their socials.
