Tsengge Eight

The Tsengge Eight (Chinese: 曾歌八; pinyin: Zēnggē bā) were a group of famous Tsengian singers that dominated music, and coverage in magazines, TV, advertisements and cinema from the late-1980s to the early-2000s. Many call them one of the most influential groups in Tsengian music history, as the eight inspired future acts like Zhao Jiaxin, Damien Zhu, and ZZC. There is no definite start of the Tsengge Eight era, some place it as early as 1987 or as late as 1993. The "official" end of the era was on March 12, 1999, when singer Joey Zhou committed suicide, leaving seven singers. The Tsengge Eight waned in the mid-2000s due to aging stars, retirement, and the introduction of new singers.

Almost all of the Tsengge Eight's hits were produced by three producers now known as the "Three Tsengge Talents": Cooper Chao, Dawson Yang, and Wang Ming-jian.
