ITE Singer-Songwriters features students and alumni from all 3 Institute of Technical Education (ITE) Colleges who write and perform original music. They were selected for this performance from a college-wide call for submissions and went through 2 months of mentorship and writing/performance workshops. This culminated in a showcase of their work in February 2024, produced by ITE Centre for Music and the Arts (@itecemta).
The ITE Singer-Songwriters will inspire, surprise and move you. Step into their world of confessions, secrets, love and heartbreak. They will be accompanied by ITE alumni musicians Leonard Mikhail and Haziq Azli.
No tickets will be issued. Seats are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
