FORD TRIO is carving out a distinct space in Thailand’s music scene with what they call Neo Thai Funk. Their sound draws from molam traditions while weaving in neo soul, R&B, alternative rock and touches of psychedelia. The result is a heady fusion that feels at once rooted and exploratory. On stage, they balance ritual-inspired art with steady grooves and unfiltered emotion, carrying audiences from the intimacy of their latest EP YANT to the warmth of fan favourites.

The 24th edition of Baybeats, presented by Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay, took place from 30 Oct – 2 Nov 2025. This year's festival was four days, instead of its usual three, and featured five stages, with the return of our Livewire Stage at the Forecourt Garden.

Each year, Baybeats works hard to bring together a diverse mix of alternative artists, from Singapore and around the world. Baybeats hopes to create a space where emerging and established artists share the same stages, where boundaries fade, and where a passion for music and shared moments are what truly matter.

As Singapore’s largest free alternative music festival, the success of Baybeats is built upon years of strong support from our independent music scene, from musicians and fans who have grown with the festival (and now bring their families along), to our Baybeats Budding Bands and first-time festival-goers. Baybeats thrives because of everyone’s unwavering support and belief in alternative music.
