BIOGRAPHY

Panghoua Thao is a passionate vocalist, songwriter, and music educator who views music as a deeply personal form of self-expression. For Panghoua, music is a space where she can authentically be herself, unrestricted by expectations or conventions. Whether writing original pop ballads or singing harmonies with her a cappella group, In Harmony, she brings emotion, clarity, and intention to every performance.

Inspired by powerhouse artists such as Demi Lovato, Christina Aguilera, and Beyoncé, Panghoua’s musical style leans into pop with a soulful, heartfelt edge. Her artistry is not motivated by fame or commercial success, but by a sincere desire to inspire others through her craft. Music is her way of connecting with people on a human level, and she hopes her voice can offer both comfort and encouragement to those who hear it.

In addition to being a performer, Panghoua is a dedicated music teacher, sharing her knowledge and passion with students while continuing to develop her own artistic practice. Her creative process is fueled by a genuine love for the art form and a belief in its power to heal, uplift, and express what words alone cannot.

As an artist with a full plate, Panghoua is often navigating the delicate balance between creative aspirations and daily responsibilities. In addition to teaching music, she is a full-time student, works full-time, volunteers regularly at her church, and leads a music program during the week. Though this active lifestyle reflects her generous spirit and driven nature, it also presents challenges—particularly in finding the time and resources to dedicate to her personal music projects.
