\n9th February 2014: NBT Independent Music Showcase ft Anna Chong, Reza Salleh & Hameer Zawawi<\/a> at No Black Tie, Jalan Mesui! Here’s emcee and organizer Reza Salleh.<\/p>\n


\nFirst act: Hameer Zawawi<\/b>, prince of game-influenced melancholic music.<\/p>\n


\nRaja Farouque on bass! Interestingly, there was a hair band on the neck, usually used to help make clean tapping on electric guitar. This would be the first time I’d see it on a bass!<\/p>\n


\nAshwin Gobinath on drums.<\/p>\n


\nReza Salleh<\/b>, prince of modern folk\/soul.<\/p>\n


\nSharon Chong and her sexy Korg SV-1. The way it’s just such a spaceship from the front…<\/p>\n


\n…and yet so normal from the top, is interesting. The panel full of knobs is sweet, too, though that’s not very clear from the picture.<\/p>\n


\nZalila Lee on percussion and Melina William on bass.<\/p>\n


\nSavy Ho on violin.<\/p>\n


\nReza puts down his guitar for a trembling ballad – I Can’t Make You Love Me<\/i>.<\/p>\n


\nAnna Chong<\/b>, princess of floating souls. Backing her on ethereal vocals was Keith Tan.<\/p>\n


\nThis is the view from the upper floor of No Black Tie.<\/p>\n


\nAnna Chong’s music is dead serious, but she has a funny stage persona.<\/p>\n


\nKen Chung, on fretless bass. Gotta love how he slided into all those notes!<\/p>\n


\nHer music is intense.<\/p>\n


\nKeith, again.<\/p>\n
