In 2021, ADOY – consisting of frontman Oh Ju-hwan, keyboardist Zee, drummer Park Geun-chang and bassist Jung Da-young – released their third EP ‘her’. The band were originally scheduled to appear at the 2020 Mosaic Music Series as their sophomore Singaporean outing, but had their show cancelled due to restrictions from the COVID-19 pandemic.

MONO last released their 11th studio album ‘Pilgrimage of the Soul’ in 2021, which was co-produced by bandleader Takaakira “Taka” Goto and American underground stalwart Steve Albini. They have also been recently announced as part of the first wave of acts performing at Thailand’s Maho Rasop 2022 festival in November. Stacey Kent released her 23rd studio album ‘Songs From Other Places’ in May, and is slated to make her appearance in Singapore alongside Japanese-American pianist Art Hirahara and Jim Tomlinson.

The three artists are the latest additions to the concert series, joining previously announced acts including Korean indie/surf rock band Say Sue Me on 20 October, Singaporean bedroom pop band Sobs on 21 October, Thai singer-songwriter Phum Viphurit on 23 October and Chilean-Norwegian indie pop singer Boy Pablo on 30 November.
