Sidney Mohede

2021 marks the 21st year since Sidney Mohede released his first solo album entitled “Surrender” in 2000. Writing songs that could speak into people’s hearts had led to the revision and republishing of the album in 2005. From his early recordings with bands such a Giving My Best, VOG and True Worshipper, he has produced numerous albums and written hundreds of published songs. His honest and authentic way of delivering a song is also his strength. When listening to his singing, people don’t just hear the words, but also feel his heart. His first album in English, “The Rescue” was released in 2013, when the era of digital platforms was rising at that time and “The Rescue” made to the digital album top charts.


Sidney is also known for his collaborative spirit. Being a part of Integrity Music Label, Sidney composed a song that was featured on Israel’s Houghton “Love God Love People” album, which eventually won a Grammy Award in 2011. Other than that, he invested his time in countless collaborative musical projects with well-known musicians in Indonesia, such as Andi Rianto, Dewa Budjana, Ronald Steven, Dira Sugandi, as well as international musicians such as Chris Tomlin, Darlene Zschech, Hillsong Music and many others.
