Aiza Seguerra @ Singapore Mosaic Music Festival 2009

The 5th annual Mosaic Music Festival in Singapore kicked off last week and will end tomorrow (22 March). This event features a hotchpotch of bands, artists and musicians of different musical genre from across the world. The Esplanade has played host to this modern day Woodstock (sans the booze and drugs) where the musicians play both indoors and outdoors.

I, together with my wife and kids, had the opportunity to watch Aiza Seguerra perform tonight at the festival outside of the Esplanade. The total performer that she is, she was able to captivate the predominantly Filipino crowd with her OPM-laden set. She was a real gem to watch, a dervish with her six-string. Despite the heavy rain before the show and the slight drizzle when it started, the crowd overflowed even to the stairs leading to the Esplanade itself. She closed her set (her first of the night, I wasn't able to watch the last set though) with a tribute to the King of Pinoy Rap, Francis M, who passed away recently. Her rendetion of FrancisM's Kaleidoscope World literally brought the house down.

Here are some of the pictures I had taken including one showing my kids during the meet-and-greet session with Aiza.
