The last week was so hectic for me that I’ve now officially fallen ill.
But ultimately, last Saturday night’s concert was simply one of the best memories of my life.
It’s so heartening to hear that the concert meant so much to so many people. For some of us (myself included), it was the fulfillment of a [...]

Perfect!
Sunday, 23 November, 2008
Tonight’s 2nd annual Songcraft mini-concert was simply perfect!
Sometimes I need to pinch myself to see if all this is real. Everything seems to go so perfectly when it comes to Songcraft. I truly want to thank God for blessing this wonderful little group since its inception.
It is truly an immense joy to know so many [...]
Tonight’s Songcraft
Saturday, 25 October, 2008
Tonight’s Songcraft session was unexpectedly fantastic.
I mean, it was much better than I has expected it to be. Which is always good.
The turnout was great, and the songs were great too.
Personally, I had two brand new songs to share, and I really enjoyed the experience. I think one gains so much more at Songcraft if [...]
Small Is Beautiful.
Sunday, 31 August, 2008
For our latest Songcraft session, the turnout was rather small.
Well, definitely much smaller if you compare it with our previous session.
But I was suddenly reminded that small is beautiful.
And I had a great time last night.

The Songcraft Songwriting Circle has grown quite a bit since it was first started in April last year.
Grown, not necessarily in the “numbers” sense, but definitely in the sense of “passion”, “chemistry” and “spirit”. This is definitely something which I had not expected, but neither can I say that it [...]

Songcraft Exclusive: An Interview With Firdaus
Monday, 23 June, 2008
One of the aims of the Songcraft Songwriting Circle is to celebrate the art of songwriting, and at the same time hone our songcraft through learning from others.
Hence, it was with immense pleasure that I was able to conduct an interview with a fellow pal in our circle, Firdaus, on his thoughts and philosophy towards songwriting.
It’s [...]
Songcraft Tonight
Saturday, 21 June, 2008
Songcraft tonight went beautifully well on so many fronts.
Of course, we had the usual manageable crowd of around thirteen to fourteen. It’s funny how we have people come and go, but at the end of the day, our turnout always manages to average around thirteen or fourteen. It’s remarkable.
We had, as usual, a wonderful assortment [...]

Songcraft is tonight, so if you happen to be reading this, and happen to be free on a Friday night, and happen to want to join…you’re most welcomed!
I’m excited about tonight’s Songcraft because:

Songcraft is turning into everything I had hoped for it to be.
I was very pleased with tonight’s Songcraft session. You could say that it is every music-lover’s dream.
It’s exactly the way I had envisioned Songcraft to be like:
Passionate musicians/songwriters coming together to share their songs with one another.
Engaging discussions [...]
