This week, Kevin and Chris go back in time as they react to Flower Show Riots, the debut album by Great Spy Experiment. It received rave reviews when it was first released, but what do they think of it now? Along the way, they also discuss hard-hitting issues like: What if Siti in Siti In The City was related somehow to Siti in the Force Vomit song? And what would the album sound like if Chris had his way?******Links<a href="https://music.apple.com/sg/artist/kaymac/1680866036" rel="nofollow">KayMac&#39;s music</a><a href="https://kevinmathews.bandcamp.com/album/time-flies" rel="nofollow">Kevin&#39;s Time Flies album</a>******Like, follow and subscribe to Lion City Rock on <a href="https://redcircle.com/shows/lion-city-rock" rel="nofollow">RedCircle</a>, <a href="https://spoti.fi/3mhNWvq" rel="nofollow">Spotify</a>, <a href="https://bit.ly/lioncityrockapple" rel="nofollow">Apple Podcasts</a>, <a href="https://adbl.co/3zTXEts" rel="nofollow">Audible</a> or wherever you get your podcasts.

Rock trio <a href="https://www.instagram.com/cactuscactusband/?hl=en" rel="nofollow">Cactus Cactus</a> dropped their new EP, Life Is Short, this weekend, so we thought we&#39;d revisit our conversation with singer Isaac Chiew, who&#39;s surely one of the brighter sparks in the music scene today.*****This podcast series isn&#39;t only about musos of the past – this week, we talk to young Isaac Chiew, a music lover and musician who&#39;s taking things into his own hands with his band <a href="https://www.instagram.com/cactuscactusband/?hl=en" rel="nofollow">Cactus Cactus</a> and his company, <a href="https://www.bigduckmusic.com/" rel="nofollow">Big Duck Music</a>.

In this rewind episode, we look back in on our conversation with singer-songwriter RENE, who has a new EP out: Slipped Through My Fingers. RENE started piano lessons when she was only four, and since then, she has taken on the world with her unique blend of pop-punk. Even the pandemic didn&#39;t stop her musical journey. In 2021, she released her debut EP, Something To Hide, and rocked the Baybeats stage at the end of the year. Here, she shares......about her time in The Lonely Hearts Club Band (yes, it was a thing)...how she develops her songs and why she hates people pigeonholing her music into &#34;genres&#34;...the biggest lessons she&#39;s learnt along the way(original airdate: 25.2.22) ******Links<a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/4xar0XE5fo7aICf4NyI7pR?si=fe5qOT0-RomKMhEsJ-hmGQ" rel="nofollow">Listen to RENE&#39;s Slipped Through My Fingers</a>******Like, follow and subscribe to Lion City Rock on <a href="https://redcircle.com/shows/lion-city-rock" rel="nofollow">RedCircle</a>, <a href="https://spoti.fi/3mhNWvq" rel="nofollow">Spotify</a>, <a href="https://bit.ly/lioncityrockapple" rel="nofollow">Apple Podcasts</a>, <a href="https://adbl.co/3zTXEts" rel="nofollow">Audible</a> or wherever you get your podcasts.

In this concluding segment of our discussion on the 30th anniversary of Democracy and Midnight In June, Kevin and Chris recall what was going on in the scene when they were making and promoting these albums.Along they way, they answer some hard-hitting questions like: Why was Kevin called Singapore&#39;s premier protest singer? Why did AWOL call their engineer &#34;Passport&#34;? And what did the band do when the audience was told by the authorities not to dance during the gig?

It&#39;s the 30th anniversary of Democracy and Midnight In June, two local albums that made a splash in the scene back in 1993.Democracy, by Kevin&#39;s band, Watchmen, was the result of years of songwriting, demos and braving challenges that were thrown in their path. Midnight In June, by Chris&#39; band AWOL (Artists Without Official Licence), came about after they won the New School Rock/Commitments band competition.In this first part, Kevin and Chris share their experiences on the road to Democracy and Midnight In June. How did award-winning filmmaker Eric Khoo play a part in both their albums? Why did AWOL not know they were taking part in a battle of the bands? And what was the band brouhaha over Democracy?

&#34;Young hearts be free tonight... time is on your side&#34;. Formed in 2019, motifs made waves in 2022 with their sparkling performance at Baybeats. Remarkably, that was only their third live appearance!Almost as quickly as they formed though, the pandemic put the brakes on the band&#39;s aspirations; but in late 2021, they got going again – with a new drummer, no less – and a year later, they released their debut album, Remember A Stranger.As a lauded young band from the Lion City, motifs seem to have a bright road ahead to tread. But why did a group of millennials and Gen Zers take on a decidedly Gen X genre like shoegaze? Join motifs&#39; Els, JJ and Jolin (with a cameo from Paul) as they answer those questions and more...******LinksBuy <a href="https://kevinmathews.bandcamp.com/album/time-flies?fbclid=IwAR1_a82hnKoR9pF7ZSqD6RdU3PkO4KBaO1cwfdlJAY1L4tP65Y_oZxKPZDk" rel="nofollow">Kevin&#39;s new album Time Flies here</a>Follow motifs on their socials: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/motifsbandsg" rel="nofollow">Facebook</a> &amp; <a href="https://www.instagram.com/motifsband/" rel="nofollow">Instagram</a>Check out Remember A Stranger and mo&#39; motifs music on <a href="https://motifs.bandcamp.com/" rel="nofollow">Bandcamp</a> &amp; <a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6Ai0kQ1MZABOQLVZNGozBB?si=NZ2croViRB2JevUPhFblbA" rel="nofollow">Spotify</a>******Like, follow and subscribe to Lion City Rock on <a href="https://redcircle.com/shows/lion-city-rock" rel="nofollow">RedCircle</a>, <a href="https://spoti.fi/3mhNWvq" rel="nofollow">Spotify</a>, <a href="https://bit.ly/lioncityrockapple" rel="nofollow">Apple Podcasts</a>, <a href="https://adbl.co/3zTXEts" rel="nofollow">Audible</a> or wherever you get your podcasts.

Meet Rae and Cravis, two young people from different backgrounds who met in the Music and Drama Company and began their life journey together. Rae currently hosts the show, Backstage Pass with MDC, which features Singapore&#39;s hot young music talents; while Cravis works with musicians and is a dancer too. If you think about it, they, it seems, have done everything, everywhere and (nearly) all at once: Rae has been on TV, on the radio, presenting and performing on stage; while Cravis has been performing with musicians both here and from overseas (most recently with France&#39;s Maya Diegel). But surprisingly, they haven&#39;t released any music together... yet.

But The October Cherries have often flown under the radar, much to Kevin&#39;s chagrin.The October Cherries&#39; drummer Richard Khan joins Kevin and Chris to share his experiences, from joining them after a chance meeting to getting stuck in Belgium to making it big with World Hits, and reveals......what happens when you don&#39;t appease fans in Asia...how they ended up staying in a lady&#39;s house for four years...and why the Truck album sounds the way it is******LinksBuy Kevin&#39;s new album, <a href="https://kevinmathews.bandcamp.com/album/time-flies?fbclid=IwAR1_a82hnKoR9pF7ZSqD6RdU3PkO4KBaO1cwfdlJAY1L4tP65Y_oZxKPZDk" rel="nofollow">Time Flies here</a>******Like, follow and subscribe to Lion City Rock on <a href="https://redcircle.com/shows/lion-city-rock" rel="nofollow">RedCircle</a>, <a href="https://spoti.fi/3mhNWvq" rel="nofollow">Spotify</a>, <a href="https://bit.ly/lioncityrockapple" rel="nofollow">Apple Podcasts</a>, <a href="https://adbl.co/3zTXEts" rel="nofollow">Audible</a> or wherever you get your podcasts.

Tomorrow Is Our Permanent Address may be a line from e e cummings, but B-Quartet&#39;s debut album is one of Kevin&#39;s and Chris&#39; favourite albums of all time. At least Top 3. Definitely in their Top 10.The guys hit rewind on an album that is a no-holds-barred exploration of sonic landscapes – sometimes sharp as a razor, sometimes soft as a pillow, or sometimes, mellow like a, er, mellow thing.But how did the band come to B? And why does this quartet have six members? All these questions and more are answered in this episode.

Kevin and Chris finish their excursion into 1995 as they look at the year&#39;s most important music-related moments, including......the rise and rise of Kit Chan and The Lizards&#39; Convention...how Zouk got its groove back despite being closed after a drugs bust...why a 38-year-old businessman wanted Anita Sarawak&#39;s bustier...and why Kevin can&#39;t remember ever going to dance club Moondance or Pepper&#39;s, the Beatles-themed restaurant that maybe-but-not-quite-probably-didn&#39;t happen in Singapore******LinksPre-order Kevin&#39;s new album, <a href="https://kevinmathews.bandcamp.com/album/time-flies?fbclid=IwAR1_a82hnKoR9pF7ZSqD6RdU3PkO4KBaO1cwfdlJAY1L4tP65Y_oZxKPZDk" rel="nofollow">Time Flies here</a>******Like, follow and subscribe to Lion City Rock on <a href="https://redcircle.com/shows/lion-city-rock" rel="nofollow">RedCircle</a>, <a href="https://spoti.fi/3mhNWvq" rel="nofollow">Spotify</a>, <a href="https://bit.ly/lioncityrockapple" rel="nofollow">Apple Podcasts</a>, <a href="https://adbl.co/3zTXEts" rel="nofollow">Audible</a> or wherever you get your podcasts.

Chris thinks 1995 was, musically, a special year for the Lion City. With more media coverage, more gigs, and more music, 1995 looked poised to be even better than the years prior. But was it really?In Part 1, Kevin and Chris look at what made 1995 special:<ul><li>Was it that local bands started opening for acts like Sheryl Crow and Bon Jovi?</li><li>Was it that R.E.M. used the Singapore show for their Star 69 music video?</li><li>Or was it that Mark and Don Richmond did a rap for the Perfect 10 Local Music Awards?</li></ul> ******Like, follow and subscribe to Lion City Rock on <a href="https://redcircle.com/shows/lion-city-rock" rel="nofollow">RedCircle</a>, <a href="https://spoti.fi/3mhNWvq" rel="nofollow">Spotify</a>, <a href="https://bit.ly/lioncityrockapple" rel="nofollow">Apple Podcasts</a>, <a href="https://adbl.co/3zTXEts" rel="nofollow">Audible</a> or wherever you get your podcasts.

Welcome to the final episode of 2022!

Another fun fact: he&#39;s the bassist for the instrumental rock band In Each Hand A Cutlass. Plus, he&#39;s recorded in Mandarin, Malay and English and is a fixture on the Singapore nightlife scene.
