Pham Duy Anh is from a musical background as he is the son of singer Le Phuong Hien and musician Quoc Long. The young man has a passion for music and began to learn to play the drums as a child.

Nguyen Duc Minh Duong was greatly influenced by his father who is a professional drummer.

The coordination between the two young drummers made for an excellent performance, leaving a positive impression on the competition’s judges.
