Black lives matter.
Black lives matter to us. Read our full statement here.
As the music world contends with the pandemic and its ramifications, musicians are taking matters into their own hands and organising concerts for virtual audiences. From Code Orange—who livestreamed their record release show from an empty venue—to Yungblud, who ran a whole multi-segment production with live performances and games with Bella Thorne, Oliver Tree and Machine Gun Kelly, many artists have adapted and responded to the situation with impressive initiative, making it clear that one can practise social responsibility and still have fun at the same time. Looking at you, Florida beach-goers.
As we adjust and try to make peace with social distancing or self-quarantine, here's a compilation of the live music shows you can stream and enjoy from the safe confines of your home. The list will be continually updated with links to more livestreams.
When: Available on-demand from 14-21 December; 21-28 December; 23-31 December, for Planeswalker, Zul Mahmod, and weish & Marc Gabriel Loh respectively.
With Sound Social Series, you can forget about the conventional concert for a little while. Together with Singaporean artists Planeswalker, Zul Mahmod, as well as weish and Marc Gabriel Loh, take a deep dive into soundscapes crafted through “technical wizardry, unconventional performing techniques or organic instrument building” across three Sundays in the month of December. Entitled Entity, Of Nature and Technology, and the last to be revealed later, these sessions will be where you challenge the boundaries of art, music, and the environment.
In-venue sessions will take place on 9 December, 7PM (ID/TH Standard Time) or 8PM (PH/SG/MY Standard Time) for Planeswalker, and 16 December, 7PM (ID/TH Standard Time) or 8PM (PH/SG/MY Standard Time) for Zul Mahmod, at S$15. Video-on-demand tickets are available on a pay-as-you-wish basis at S$10, S$15, or S$20. Get your tickets
