Picture this: You’re 18-year-old me, Vinson Fong. You’re working on your own album, your Instagram feed is filled with Singaporean music, and you’re messaging local artists who are probably the coolest people you’ve ever met. Then suddenly, The Projector closes. The indie space that made you fall in love with local art is gone. Hi, welcome to Listen to Lions. Listen to Lions is a project dedicated to archiving and preserving Singapore’s local music scene. It exists to document the artists, releases, stories, and moments that shape the sound of a generation — before they disappear (I’m an optimist, but still). By collecting and showcasing local music in one place, the project aims to build a living archive that celebrates the past, supports the present, and preserves something for the future. The next time someone says, “SG got music meh?” Show them this.
