SYNOPSIS

Alley Talk is made up of Samantha Tan on vocals, Clarence Yeo on guitar and Shawn Kok on percussion. They are a trio of good friends who enjoy creating music magic together. Adventurous and somewhat cheeky, they will be performing daring renditions of their favourite Christmas tunes and anthems, with a charismatic concoction of multiple genres and styles.

Samantha ventured into the music arena through a national songwriting competition, which elevated her affinity for music to greater heights. She has since performed at various locations island-wide including popular night spots like Wala Wala, Acid bar and Esplanade. Besides her passion for performing, Samantha is also a published songwriter who has written songs for regional artistes such as Kelly Chen, Theresa Fu and Cilla Kung.

Clarence enjoys infusing jazz and R&B influences in his arrangements. Over the years, he has lent his signature explorative fingerstyle grooves to local artistes such as Tay Kewei, Bevlyn Khoo, Juliet Pang and Shimona Kee. He is also no stranger to some of Singapore’s most popular music places such as Timbre, Wala Wala and Acid Bar. His passion for songwriting has also brought him to perform showcases at Esplanade and Backstage in Hong Kong.

Shawn found his niche in contemporary percussion after his stint with MediaCorp’s Channel U Super Band in 2006, and has since garnered a huge following on YouTube with his unique approach to hand drums. Considering himself an all-round avant-garde performer, Shawn strives to push the envelope of music performance with his unorthodox methods and unique choice of instruments.

Firstly, a big THANK YOU to Great Music Singapore, also the source of this video, for their review of us here: http://www.greatmusic.com.sg/local-artists/uncanny-sounds-20100208/

This was nearly a year back, how time flies... but I'm glad I'm finally able to share this song I'd written for partner-in-crime, Juliet! I remember how excited we were about our debut in Singapore, having performed at Backstage Live Hong Kong prior.

A Night with David Choi!

Sunday, Aug 22, 2010 7:16PM / Members only

It was great to finally meet David Choi in person, even if it happened to be a random conversation about how we're linked while in the gents at TAB.

We had fun at his show, catching up with many familiar faces, and being entertained by a few new ones. Watching him sing his compositions live, heart-felt with a story attached to each ...how genuine they were. I most appreciated the effort despite performing during his bed-time and using a guitar which wasn't his. I'd be heaps uncomfortable with an unfamiliar one.

Kudos to Adrian and Keith, who opened many doors to international acts with a place like TAB. Incidentally, I will be performing on the same stage this coming Wednesday for Kewei's debut album press conference. Very much looking forward to experiencing the sound on stage. As Adrian was proud to claim, it being THE musician's stage, as one could hear and see himself from the reflections on the windows. ;)

It was fun hanging out with David after. Together with Richard, his friendly manager, we took on the Zouk floors with David's signature moves from Dance to this Song (3:24 on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MVFAx-AX3c). An eventful night to end off my week!

All the best with your pursue David, would definitely visit one day. May your music always be as true! =)

In 2007, he performed for the National Day pre-show at the Singapore Merlion and Suntec City Fountain of Wealth.

- "HUSH", an acoustic band who's called Wala Wala their home for the past couple of years. Humbly birthed to compete in the Stripped Acoustic Life competition in 2006 with Carol & Clarence, growing to a now permanent set up with Tay Kewei on vocals and Clarence & Dayv on guitars. They enjoy groovy R&B and pop numbers every Tuesdays, Happy Hour. Kewei & Clarence had also written a song especially for birthday babies who happen to visit. Recently, they were incidentally spotted on the news!

They often indulge in the search for an unfamiliar but brewing chemistry of a lovely old song, performing jazz standards, contemporary numbers and original numbers. Performed regularly at Em By The River. In early 2009 upon invitation, held their showcase at Backstage LIVE, Hong Kong. His jazzy arrangement of Sunday Morning (Maroon 5) was also aired LIVE on Okto Live, a local TV programme in the same year.

- "SERENE & CLARENCE", a duo of good mates carried by Serene Koong's soulful smoky vocals and Clarence's groovy guitar rhythms. Their modern and refreshing take on music comes from truly believing that good music and company comes in no expense of one's soul. They have performed at numerous events and sessions at 7ate9 and Barstop. Recently, they put together a band, MaybeFriday, with two other similar-hearted mates (James Yeo & Shawn Kok) and counted down into the new year at the Marine Cove Countdown 2010.
