Esplanade Presents

(Intermission: None)
DBS Foundation Outdoor Theatre at Esplanade
Before there was Spotify, there were burnt CDs, Kazaa downloads and Creative Zens full of songs you did not want your parents to know about. elysrei & friends take you back to the alt rock and emo anthems that soundtracked the 2000s, featuring songs by Paramore, Fall Out Boy, Evanescence, Avril Lavigne, Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, and more.
A girl who grew up on music made mostly by boys, elysrei brings a killer band—Alex Hooi (lead guitar), Adam Ang (rhythm guitar), Nathanael Nilesh (keys), John Paul Kwan (bass guitar), and Zach Liu (drums)—or two sets of gut-punch ballads, full-band bangers and iconic sing-alongs.
