The ASEAN Music Showcase Festival 2021

The ASEAN Music Showcase Festival (AMS) is back with its second edition after a successful effort last year. This second edition will be purely virtual again - adding two new ASEAN countries to the list, Cambodia, and Vietnam. The festival is scheduled to take place from the 11th to the 13th September 2021 featuring 4 artists from each participating country, totaling up to 28 artists. To share further on the festival, co-organizers Piyapong Muenprasertdee, David Siow, and Mak Wai Hoo join us on the show talking through what we can expect from the second edition of the festival and the behind the scenes stories of organizing it.
