Home-grown artistes Abangsapau and Regina Song performed for about 90 attendees at Esplanade Annexe Studio on Oct 7
The latest recordings of The Straits Times’ Music Lab podcast saw two rising names in the Singapore music scene take centre stage.
Local rapper Abangsapau and indie-pop singer-songwriter Regina Song performed for some 90 ST readers at Esplanade Annexe Studio on Oct 7. The pair also shared the stories behind their work and answered questions from the audience.
The free event was the fifth instalment of the ST Podcasts Live series, which was launched in February and kicked off ST’s 180th anniversary celebrations. Kiss92 radio DJ Shawnia Seah was the event’s emcee.
The evening showcased a double feature of Music Lab recordings. The music-centric podcast series started in 2023 and is hosted by ST music correspondent Eddino Abdul Hadi.
During the three-hour show, Song performed a stripped-downed version of her ballad Before I Leave, released as a single in August. The 21-year-old also treated the crowd to an unreleased number, Midsummer Mansion, which was inspired by a long-distance relationship.
