Tyson Yoshi attended Sedbergh School in the United Kingdom and later studied interior architecture at the University of Brighton. In 2018, he started producing music in Taiwan and debuted with the single, "To My Queen". In July 2019, he became famous with "Christy", a song written to his girlfriend. "Christy" went on to accumulate more than one million views on YouTube, the first of his songs to do so.
