HOSTESS CLUB WEEKENDER HAS BEEN CANCELLED.

Taken off Facebook.

It is with outmost regret that we are announcing the cancellation of the Hostess Club Weekender Singapore.

Due to the second day Tokyo headline artist falling through at visa deadline time, and another artist on that program being unable to secure visa approval, the Tokyo Hostess Club Weekender has had to be very reluctantly canceled.

Given the Tokyo Weekender is the anchor event of the Hostess Club circuit, which also helps fund the entire Asia outing, this meant the tour itself has come to be untenable.

We would like to offer our sincere apologies to fans who have bought tickets to the show – every effort has been made to find a solution to retain the regional shows without Tokyo, however a combination of political unrest and sponsor withdrawals in the region as well as just moderate ticket sales in Singapore ultimately made this unrealistic to pursue.

We are working closely with our ticketing agent eventClique to ensure all ticket holders are refunded swiftly. For enquiries regarding this please contact:-

This is the second Hostess Club Weekender in a row that has been cancelled. It’s going to take something very extra-special if the event is going to regain the confidence of concert-goers.

HOSTESS CLUB WEEKENDER

Next Saturday (14th June) will see the 2nd SG edition of the Hostess Club Weekender over at Infinite Studios. In carrying out research on Cat Power (who will be headlining the day), I had come across information that Chan Marshall had been performing solo earlier in the year. That necessitated a text message to Hostess Asia’s Nikki Mahmood-Chee about whether Marshall would be playing solo or with a band in Singapore. And in a quick exchange of texts, I gathered that it is indeed going to be an exciting day at the Hostess Club Weekender!

First up, Cat Power will be playing with a band and that figuring out her setlist should be intriguing. Perfume Genius will be playing a new set, previewing material from his new album. Incidentally, all solo performers (like Perfume Genius and SOHN) will be backed by full bands! And speaking of new material, Blonde Redhead will also be sharing songs from its upcoming new album.

Don’t miss out on this!

Tickets available from eventclique.com now.
