Following up from the Beijing announcement with Take Two and SA trio, SG MUSO has announced singer-songwriters Charlie Lim and Gentle Bones as performers for the SGMUSO Live Showcase, which falls under Singapore: Inside Out (SG:IO). In what could be a very promising start to an international tour for both acts, they are the first two of three musicians selected to perform in the English capital and possibly playing more shows of their own around the area. The musicians are currently confirmed to be in London from 24 to 28 June, this year.

UPDATE: It has been confirmed that indie pop band Pleasantry, who themselves have just recently wrapped up a tour in North America, will be joining Charlie Lim and Gentle Bones for the SGMUSO Live Showcase in London, taking place in the highly esteemed record shop/live music space Rough Trade East.
