Paranoid City goes on mini regional tour

Manila synth dance rock band, Paranoid City is embarking on a mini regional tour next month, with stops in Singapore and Malaysia. This will be the group's live debut in KL and their second appearance in Singapore, following their stint at 2015's Rockin' the Region with Brisom and Birdforms

We speak to Japo Araneta (keyboard and synths) about preparing for their upcoming overseas shows, including surprises for their fellow synthizens away from home. 

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

Modern jazz-fusion adventurers Snarky Puppy will set Singapore alight with a night of soulful jams and instrumental excursions in June. Get your tickets now before they’re all gone!

How are your tour preparations coming along? 

Japo: Our band is so excited right now about our mini-regional tour this June. We've been preparing for it by writing new songs and rehearsing our setlist. We wanna try to give our first-time audience a fun synthpop experience. We try as we can to try and show everyone that Paranoid City's not just a band, it's a shared experience for both the band and the audience. We'll also finish things with a fun covers set in SG that the Titos and Titas will love.

Do you guys have anything special planned for your fans in the cities you'll be visiting?

Japo: We're currently making something special for those who would care to support us (AKA: "SYNTHizens"). It's gonna be an exclusive treat for our friends outside of the Philippines. I don't know if it's still early to say this but, aside from our special exclusive surprise, we also did a collaboration with some of our friends in Malaysia. We'll just let them announce it first.
