Comprised of producer/mixer Dominic “Dom” Pizano, rappers-singers Issac Pech, Tarrek Abdel-Khaliq, Joseph Barros, and creative director Jorge Olazaba, the group started as a teenage DIY attempt at music, based out of a shed in San Jose, California. The Bay Area music collective’s live show will be held on July 19th at the Hard Rock Cafe Singapore.

French House ﬂag bearer Vincent Fenton, professionally known as FKJ (French Kiwi Juice) is set to bring his much-anticipated Asia tour to Singapore on August 1st, Tuesday, 8 PM at the Pasir Panjang Power Station. In support of his third album, Vincent, released in June 2022, expect to hear new songs from the record and your old favorite FKJ hits.

Måneskin’s RUSH! World Tour happens on November 27th, 8 PM, at the Singapore Expo Hall 1. Måneskin is an Italian rock band formed in Rome in 2016. The band ﬁrst started as street performers, until their rise to fame in X Factor Italy in 2017 where they ﬁnished second place. They broke through the international scene in 2021 when they won the Eurovision Song Contest for Italy with the song “Zitti e buoni”. To date, Måneskin has sold an estimated 40 million copies worldwide, over 4 billion streams across streaming platforms including 25.5M million monthly listeners on Spotify, and 6 diamond, 133 platinum, and 34 gold certiﬁcations.

French Kiwi Juice, or FKJ in short, is the latest addition to the Wanderland 2023 lineup.

FKJ has previously played Wanderland in 2018, a year after releasing his self-titled debut album, French Kiwi Juice and played a headline show for Karpos Live in 2019. Finally, after his latest release in 2022, V I N C E N T, he’s returning to the Philippines and making his own comeback on the Wanderland stage.

Vincent Fenton, the man behind the moniker, FKJ, is a self-taught genre-blending multi-instrumentalist from France–a multi-hyphenated artist to say the least.

With that said, it’s really hard to put into words what his music is like.

It’s a kaleidoscopic blend of jazz, electronic, soul, and RnB, paired with an intricate instrumentation of guitar, bass, piano, saxophone and more. It sounds complex but ironically, his music transports listeners to a space that’s light and airy with lots of room for them to feel, think, and wander–a testament to how he masterfully creates each track and why he is a perfect match for the Wanderland roster.

We’re told the best way to experience his music is by watching him play live (it’s the reason why the Wanderland team keeps inviting him back!). His live set is like an invitation to his own living room, an organic showcase of art and talent—only more crisp and astonishing than playing it over headphones or speakers. Not only can you dive into the rhythms and melodies, you get to pay close attention to how he can switch instruments up in an instant.

If you think listening to his music alone already leaves you speechless, wait until you experience his live performance.

FKJ joins Carly Rae Jepsen (CA), Phoenix (FR), Sunset Rollercoaster (TW), Men I Trust (CA), No Rome (PH), Stephen Day (US), Balming Tiger (KR), George (KR), Blaster and The Celestial Klowns (PH), Leo Wang (TW), August Wahh (PH) and The Sundown (PH).

More acts to be announced. Full lineup will be released soon—stay tuned to our socials to stay in the loop.

We wander. We win.
