Gaining recognition from local gig organizer,these boys grabs any opportunities that comes their way. Progressing seems visible for the band they will never stop even though they are satisfied.Still wanting to inspire and be heard, these boys continues composing songs and making you dance. Their influences ranges from the old rock and roll band the beatles to the likes of Mando Diao, a modern rock and roll band.

These boys are determined to make it big and they will never stop believing.


The Pinholes is the band you'd wanna bring home to your family. This four-piece has breathed new life into the Singapore Rock & Roll left void by the Legends of Golden Venus. The Pinholes' zany, high-energy live performances and playful, hard rocking psychedelica tunes have earned them many friends/fans/families and a cult following in constituencies like Bukit Gombak, Bandung (Indonesia), Bukit Bintang (Malaysia) and Austin (USA). And yes, they do house parties too. Book them now to avoid disappointment. Remember: good, clean fun for the whole family!


An avid ska/punk band since early 1999, FPM is majorly influenced by the Japanese ska/punk melodious ska beats. With unique and addictive sounds, FPM was accepted by the local scenesters. They were given the chance to play in the same stage as other great ska bands in Singapore and Malaysia like Fairy Goat Mudder, Useless Espionage, Air Sick Pilots, 73, Plague of Happiness, Kluk Kluk Adventure, GSC and more. Started out as a 3-piece ska punk band, FPM found that they could enhance their sound by adding more members in the Munkee family tree. Throughout the years, there were a few that came and go. But the remaining members of FPM are very thankful for having them in their band as they have contributed a lot of effort and energy in the band. Wherever they are right now, they will never be forgotten. FPM's current line up compromises of Fid(vox and guitar), Ogy(drums), joshiO(bass), Nahar@Bear(trumpet), Lil Hafiz(sax) and Ben(trombone). FPM hit the recording studio in the year 2000 to record their EP. There were ups and down in the journey of FPM in the ska scene in spore. Some find FPM too "aggro" for a ska band, some just don't understand the music at all. Yet FPM still maintain their style and soon more seems to appreciate their music.
