Taiwanese singer/pianist Peggy Hsu slyly references Buddy Holly's 1957 rock ‘n' roll classic in her stage name, exemplifying the good cheer with which she rifles through global pop culture. As lead singer for indie-poppers Le Cirque, Hsu brought a precise vocal intonation to unfailingly upbeat twee anthems. In her other guise—Mandopop fashion plate—she's proven adept at fleshing out her durably catchy hooks with an array of alluring sounds, murmuring gently over smoky bossa nova rhythms or just relaxing atop warm lounge grooves.
