WADE DAO 来自台北，美国籍。他的工作围绕 MC、制作人、影像创作者与舞者等多重身份，在这片土地上探索着戏剧、语言、自由、教育、以及神话等艺术领域。幕前，WADE DAO 以台北地下HIP HOP 组织NOD TOWN（beats and friends）的一员活跃于全台各大小音乐场景；幕后，则是创意团队Melting Part 的核心人物之一，经手跨领域艺术结合活动的策划。在这些文化空间里，WADE DAO 自由地切换身份，致力在台北充满活力的艺术生态系统中贯彻品质、创新与国际交流等价值，是个集众多特质于一身的独特存在。 作为一名音乐家，WADE DAO 以诗词与扎实的即兴演出而闻名；作为一位 MC，则以善于联系演出者与观众间的互动关系而为人所推崇。首张 EP《A WILD DANCE OF FLAME》是与童年好友 rgry 的合力制作，并于 2022 年透过奇清唱片（Chi-Ching Records）发行。这五首曲目的 EP 作品既是张 MIXTAPE，也是封情书、一本游记，以及一部神话的起源故事。一年后，这些故事带着 WADE DAO 获得了 2023 年金音创作奖（GIMA）的最佳新人奖提名的殊荣。 WADE DAO is a Taiwanese-American multidisciplinary artist based in Taipei by way of New York.
