FEATURED ARTISTS
DON SHIAU (musician)
Don has been quietly writing songs for well over a decade. Frustrated with amassing a body of work which few people have had the chance to hear, he decided to start plying the open mic circuit this year, performing to live audiences for the first time. His songs often deal with the search for meaningful human connections, wrapped in melodic verse-chorus-verse pop sensibilities. More of a songwriter than a guitarist, performances are Don's way of 'practising in public' to get good enough to 'record in private'. He hopes to release a proper EP--either solo or with a band--sometime in 2013.
