After weeks of non-stop toiling, I decided to take a break last weekend and try something different for a change. It is always nice to dress up, make an evening drive to town, and try a new bar every once a while. Last Saturday night, the choice was Rabbit Hole at Changkat Bukit Bintang where The Guinness Amplify Live Tour gigs was going on.
The theme of the night was to celebrate “Music Made of More” – music that is made with true passion, talent, and dedication. What I find interesting about it is the idea of how Amplify brings music back to the place where it began for many music icons: the pub.
It is undeniable that there are more and more great talents in the country that can be seen performing on small bar stages night after night to share their passion with the world. As a performing arts graduate, I understand how hard this path is; hence I truly appreciate how Guinness provides a platform for local artists to not only showcase their musical talents, but also their stories and reasons that brought them this far. This Amplify Live Tour gig featured Malaysian bands like Jumero, The Marquee and OJ Law.

It’s amazing to see how Guinness has come such a long way. This balloon that pops up at their events always acts as a sweet reminder of how it has started brewing since 1759. Today, with its new refreshed music platform, we celebrate this remarkable journey of Guinness while appreciating talented, dedicated, and passionate local musicians.

If you’re wondering who will be the international artist for the finale, a little bird told me that Canadian band MAGIC! That brought you the hit song “Rude” will be performing alongside our OJ Law And DASH at KL LIVE on Saturday, October 18th.
