The Diarist Sessions Open Mic #49 - 21 Feb at The Music Parlour

"We record a bit of ourselves in every song that is written as an observation or musing of the times. The songs themselves are an entry in the musical diary of our young country."

"The Diarists" are a collective formed in 2012 to curate spaces for musicians in Singapore to perform with an emphasis on creating environments suitable for musical appreciation.

The Diarist Sessions Open Mic #49 – 21 February 2017

Featuring:

Jester Mojo

Jester Mojo enjoys playing the guitar but is finding it increasingly difficult to balance between work and guitar commitments. Music Parlous is located literally a stone's throw away from the office, and Jester is keen to maintain some level of dexterity on the strings.
