Live & Local: Knightingale

Band: Knightingale
Location: Hood Bar & Cafe
Date: April 18th

Music scenes are made by the locals.

So we took the opportunity to check out Singapore’s garage-rock trio Knightingale as they took the support spot for American indie rockers Cloud Nothings. It was was a crazy, high-energy show to a full house—and one we’re glad we didn’t miss.

We sent a photographer to capture some of the madness—check out the shots below.
