Everything with Soul: Vanessa Fernandez, Singapore
About this episode
Show creator Udhara de Silva chats with co-host Vanessa Fernandez, who's been plugged into Singapore's culture for the past 20 years. In this episode Vanessa gives us an overview on Singapore, enlightens us on its music history, talks about her career in radio, and gives us a sneak peak of our guests this season!
Vanessa's performed at music festivals such as the Gilles Peterson Worldwide Festival in France, Laneway Festival in Singapore, BIGSOUND in Australia, V-ROX in Russia, and the Concrete and Grass Festival in China. She's released music with major record labels as well as indie labels.
Besides making music, she was a radio DJ on commercial radio station 987FM and ran Lush 99.5 FM, which was Singapore's only indie/electronic format dedicated to art. And for the past 3 years she's mentored creatives with the National Arts Council's Noise Music Mentorship program.
