This special edition of Lepak Readings presents five musicians–and also frequent visitors of Independent Archive–improvising solo and together. Between them, their music spans across different genres, from electronic and experimental music to folk, blues, and rock. The musicians bring to NTU CCA Singapore the improvisations and jamming sessions that spontaneously erupt at Independent Archive.
