It’d double trouble AND double fun this weekend with Aya x 2! In Aya’s words: FRIDAY sees a “serious (not seriel) killer session with “JAZZ & HENDRIX“ featuring Bani Rahman(bass/vocal), Regi Leo(guitar), Tan Boon Gee(drums) and AYA SEKINE on keys. Bani is a bassist but he sings like Hendrix…without drugs and alcohol. We have seriel ‘killer’ tunes. See ya tmrw night. Don’t miss!” From 9:30pm onwards @ Cafe

And on SATURDAY, Aya comes back with crazy talented Wan Abang on percussions, Ramu on Vibraphone and all sorts of coolness, Pablo on Drum and of course Aya on Keyzzzzzz. It’s a hit. No Doubt. 9:30pm onwards @ Cafe

Peace Out!
