Esplanade will be kicking off 2017 with a bevy of burgeoning acts, including plenty of artists set to release brand new albums.

Impressively enough, starting on New Year's Day all the way till January 31st, there will be a consistent stream of free shows nearly every single day at the Esplanade as part of their ambitious All Things New banner.

Of their exhaustive buffet of local delights, many are set to unveil fresh original material as part of their sets. Among them are hip-hop and R&B songstress Abby Simone, soulful rock quintet Astronauts, resurgent post-rock favourites Arajua, electronic-pop artist Maricelle and NYC-based singer-songwriter Tammy Ying.

Other highlights include blues-rock Bandwagon Nights alumni Shak and the Baits, fast-rising alt-R&B starlet Ffion and the debut of Middle Class Cigars signee Linus Hablot.
