Singapore has seen a surge of concerts and gigs, making music fans – no matter what genre – very, very happy. With big names headlining music festivals like Laneway and Camp Symmetry, and individual acts like Empire of The Sun and Taking Back Sunday making trips to our little red dot, we can’t help but want more.
And more we will get! Experimental post-hardcore group La Dispute is leaving the US and will be hitting Singapore for an exclusive, one-off performance this June. Presented by Other Sounds, their gig at The Substation Theatre is not only the band’s first ever show in Asia, it is also their only stop in the region. We feel blessed!
The band formed in 2004, and have since released two albums – Somewhere at the Bottom of the River Between Vega and Altair (phew, what a mouthful!) and Wildlife. Soon, La Dispute will release their third album, Rooms of the House, which has already garnered critical acclaim from the likes of Alternative Press, who have called it “a success on all levels” in their 5-star review of the album.
La Dispute’s first show in Singapore will be supported by local indie/punk act False Plaintiff who have recently been selected as one of eight finalists who will perform at this year’s Baybeats Festival.
La Dispute live in Singapore (with False Plaintiff) will be at The Substation Theatre, on Thursday, 5 June 2014. Doors open at 8pm. Tickets are $45 (early bird, limited tickets available) and $55 (standard). Get yours now via Peatix.
