Most glad to while away Saturday afternoon to Noughts and Exes melodic folk rock-pop. These guys are talented and so fun. I'm glad to have heard them properly at The Pigeonhole first. The other 2 venues they played at later in the evening weren't conducive to their sound, and the horrible mixing didn't do justice to the many layers and depth of their music.
Sitting warm and cosy inside The Pigeonhole beats freezing my ass off the other time at Hong Kong Park. With a full band in a chill cafe, fruit beers kickstarted the party! Always nice to see the friends and get together for good music.
I've a couple of favorite songs from their new album, especially Everything and Lovely Day. Quite radio-friendly too! The members of Noughts and Exes are super foodies. They arrived last night and by the time I saw them, they've already hit Maxwell Market for their favorite fix of Hainanese chicken rice and other fun stuff, Katong laksa and whatnots. Then they checked out Bar Bar Black Sheep today for some overpriced Indian food in a not too-local-locale. WIN. We, the Singaporeans haven't even gone round the block to eat all the 'must-eat' local food!
In fact, I know of a couple of friends who might like this band too. People who like The Postal Service, The Decemberists, Belle & Sebastian......would view Noughts and Exes fondly. CDs have been bought and will be sent out to these people very soon!
