Following the successful launch of Homegrown Space and its Music Showcase and Clinic in conjunction with Bentley’s first year anniversary at Wisma Bentley, Mutiara Damansara in May, Homegrown is keeping the spirit of supporting the local arts alive by being a host to many other fresh acts in the scene with the chance to be a part of the Homegrown movement.
Be prepared for a month-long line-up of performances and art/music workshops in the month of MAY 2009 in conjunction with the Homegrown Space Launch and Bentley’s first year anniversary at Wisma Bentley, Mutiara Damansara.
Beginning from the weekend of 9th May onwards right up to 31st May, come and pack the auditorium at Wisma Bentley to Catch Bittersweet, Telebury, Bo Amir, Yuna and other homegrown artists. Come watch out indie-film screenings, readings and music workshops organized to celebrate the local arts.
Homegrown’s efforts continued with a Rock Sunday Weekend organized for the school holiday season. Some of the new rock acts included Marionexess, a part of a poet group- Negarakus. This folk rock band performed songs like 8TV, I am Fantaghiro and others that wooed the crowd in amazement with their uniqueness. Homegrown was also privileged to have indie bands such as Odie Audio, O-TWO, and Shizuka who traveled from up north to play at the Homegrown Space.
Another crowd pulling band was rock alternative band Stonebay. Playing an acoustic set, these three piece band managed to draw audiences with their alluring vocals and clean acoustic sound. Playing their hit single Sangsi and Si Murai Penipu, audiences and fans were mesmerized. The audience deserved the biggest credit as they stayed throughout the 8 bands’ performances that included Aural Joint, Auburn, and Brainheads.
