Nice to hear Class 95 playing Alarice’s song “Midnight Train” these few days.
I’ve been hearing it a few times now.
Here’s to more local music* being aired on our radio.
There was a time back in the early 90′s when local music actually received quite a bit of air time with the likes of Kick!, Lizard’s Convention, Watchmen, Padres, AWOL, Oddfellows, Lilac Saints, Naked, etc.
Then it all kinda disappeared off the airwaves.
Nowadays, I notice a lot of good young local talent coming up, many of which are highly competent singer-songwriters in their own right.
I look forward to a time in the near future when we can have many more local singer-songwriters being given the air time that they deserve.
Here’s to a revival in local music once again.
*Well, technically Alarice’s Facebook page (here) says: “Born in Auckland, New Zealand to Singaporean parents, Alarice spent her childhood as a third culture kid, growing up in Japan, Indonesia, Dubai, India, Singapore and finally Australia.”
