12th February 2015: An Honest Mistake Records Presents: Discovery Thursday (Feb 2015) at Laundry Bar, The Curve.

A usual soundcheck scene involves a musician pointing at the sound monitor asking to crank it up.

First act: Saturday Afternoon.

This isn’t Deo but Ashley!

This is still Dianne.

The girls make awesome artwork, whether it’s temporary tattoos, cards or nuts in a jar. Okay so that’s not exactly artwork. Nutwork perhaps.

Didn’t notice this door from Italiannies’ next door before!

Meliha Faisal.

I brought my Sony Carl Zeiss Planar T* 50mm F1.4 ZA SSM this time for a change, mounting it on the LA-EA4 which allows for speedy autofocus on the Sony Alpha 7S.

Then came KissKillMary.

Jenn is off the hook!

She has a Stage Presence pedal, and she cranks it to 11.

Sani just stands on top of a speaker and hopes to bask in whatever leftover glory.

Sultry Jenn touches Talitha who I didn’t see later, probably because she melted into a puddle.

This is why this year’s Chinese New Year is so hot.

Dance/indie/disco rock, with an awesome keyboard sound. Her KORG makes me want to buy one just to make new-wave sounds just like hers!

So, I wondered how anybody could perform after them…

…but The Fridays could.

Indiepop of the finest!

The song titles are catchy, with stuff like In The Wilderness The Bear Does Not Reply Text Messages.

Nice looking cherry red Epiphone SG bass!

That’s some crazy stage energy! The vocalist is particularly fun to watch, with him going off his rocker in every song.

Darren Teh of An Honest Mistake Records, as emcee and organizer, closes the night.

Swag night for these boys, Eizhan and Lucian.
