[UPDATE on Nov 27: Gentle Bones has cancelled his December 10 gig due to “unforeseen circumstances”. His full statement, published on his Instagram page, is below:

“With an extremely heavy heart, I must inform you all that the 10th of December show at the Esplanade Concert hall has been cancelled. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we are going to have to hold this off for now. I am terribly sorry for the inconvenience this has caused to all of you. My team and I are currently working on rescheduling show dates for 2016 and I’ll do my very best to make up for all of this. Refund details can be found through @universalmusg. You guys sold out the show within a month and it pains me to say that it’s going to have to wait. Please be patient with me!”

Popspoken has reached out to Gentle Bones’ label, Universal Music Singapore, for comment. Refund details can be found out on the label’s Facebook page here.]

Months of preparations have gone into this show and I’m glad I have the opportunity to present my new music along with revisions of the old, in the beautiful Esplanade Concert Hall. Many exciting things are almost due and I’d like the people at home to be the first to experience it live.”
