Heineken Presents Peaches Live In Singapore

© Angel Ceballos

Peaches returns to Singapore on April 28 for a one night only show at Zirca. Pre-sale tickets at $45 are available at TDC, Zirca and Home Club. Otherwise, you can purchase them on the day of the show at $55. The event starts at 9.30pm. Zirca is located at The Cannery, Clarke Quay 3C River Valley Road.

From Australiaʼs Big Day Out to the US of Aʼs Coachella, Peaches has stomped her way around the globe and turned all heads along the way with her cutting-edge music and her outrageously fierce sense of style. As todayʼs definitive icon of innovation, the Canadian-born dance electro punk musician has unabashedly brought sex and sexuality to her art (Fatherfucker, anyone?) and reinvented fashion, bringing individualism to a level beyond. Peachesʼ brand of the original dirty classic has gone live from Japan to Europe and infiltrated the soundtracks of films like Love Actually and TV shows like The L Word. This April, HOME and John Robinson are proud to bring you the freshest sound of Peaches Live in Singapore!

I Am David Sparkle: To Texas And Back

I Am David Sparkle has been selected to play a showcase set at the South by Southwest (SXSW) Festival this year. And that's fascinating news, because they will be the third Singaporean band after Electrico and The Great Spy Experiment to play at this prestigious music event.

However, it will cost a bomb to get the entire band to the U.S.A., so they are holding a party to raise funds for the plane tickets. To Texas And Back is the name of the show, and a couple of bands such as Plainsunset and Amateur Takes Control will be performing for this worthy cause. So remember to mark January 31 on your calendars and head down to the Home Club to support our very own local artists.
