  • Ep117: 2024 Wrapped (feat. Shye)
    Dec 30 2024

    Oh, what a year it has been! As we say goodbye to 2024, we thought we'd reflect on the year with our top five fave moments on the pod. Unsurprisingly - or perhaps, surprisingly - Chris and Kevin had four same items out of the five on their list. But what was the different one?

    PLUS! A special appearance by Shye!

    PLUS PLUS! Our wishes for 2025!

  • Ep116: The Return of Isaac Chiew
    Dec 22 2024

    You know it's a fun day when Friend of the Pod Isaac Chiew returns to share more thoughts about the Lion City's music scene.

    How have his experiences working with record labels and youth organisations shaped his mindset? Which Lion City Rockers rock his boat? And when will his band, Cactus Cactus, drop their new album?

    The answers to all this and more are right here! In this episode! Really!

  • Ep115: Busking with Pat Chng
    Dec 13 2024

    We’re so happy to have friend of the pod Patrick Chng, back for another episode!

    This time, the Oddfather of Singapore Indie Music spills the beans about his new journey into the world busking in the Lion City.

    What does it take to be a busker in Singapore? Where are all the hot busking spots? And is it really true that all buskers MUST learn to play John Denver’s ‘Take Me Home, Country Roads’?
