"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 #51 – 9 May 2017
Featuring:
Emma
I am just a beginner. I enjoy singing and jamming, that is why I decided to perform. It will be my 2nd time performing so I will probably be very nervous. I can play a little bit of piano and ukulele.

Indah Han
20, 149cm tall, and a voice. These are the ingredients chosen to create her sappy happy songs. But Professor Utonium accidentally added an extra ingredient to the concoction - Chemical X (aka lack of proper sentencing and an eccentric love for cats. And old cartoons.) Thus, her songs are written. Using her voice and her music, she dedicates her time with music to tell little stories and to fight the little forces of evil.

Chuen
Hello! I have been performing and playing music for almost 3 years now. I do vocals mainly and I play the guitar too. I have sang songs ranging from One Ok Rock's Wherever You Are to Bruno Mar's When I Was You Man.
I write songs too, which are mainly English and I hope to show people my music!

Azizan
Azizan is a lyricist, a composer, an arranger and a sound engineer. His specialty is in symphonic arrangement but he loves performing acoustically as well. His lyrics touches on the very controversial topic such as the purpose of life and makes them questions or challenge the very existence of it. He also touches on romantic lyrics and twist them with biblical references and mythologies to make it seem deep and interesting.

Cues
Cues is a four-piece instrumental band from Singapore, who finally discovered their signature sound in 2016. They are heavily influenced by post-rock and math-rock bands such as toe, And So I Watched You From Afar, Chon and tricot. Upon completion of this short biography they shall retreat back to the shadows, where they will continue to write music, practice their instruments, play videogames and watch Gintama all at the same time.
