Next weekend, .gif take their show on the road to perform five dates in Hong Kong, Taiwan and China.

The indie electronic outfit combines the talents of local artists weish (vocals, synths) and din (synths, beats, production), both of whom treat the band as a "a space of freedom, respite, and honesty", in addition to their other creative projects.

Snarky Puppy Live in Singapore 2016 helped made it possible for us to bring you this week's news. (What is this?)

Since the release of their debut EP saudade back in 2013, .gif released their full length album Soma, and performed in London, Manila, KL, Jakarta, and at notable local festivals such as St. Jerome’s Laneway Festival, and Singapore Night Festival. 

After their entrancing opening set for M83 last month, none of us need further convincing that these are shows you don't want to miss.

So if you're bound to Singapore, call up your distant friends and relatives and tell them to get their tushes down to their show pronto.

Watch the band perform 'Diatribe' for Bandwagon Sessions:
