No one would argue that this has been an amazing year to catch a whole host of inter indie bands in Bangkok. One of the main reasons for that has to be the tireless efforts of the Popscene Live crew and it looks like they’re set to see 2013 out with a bang with another round of intriguing acts lined up. Things kick off with the garage power pop of France’s Departure Kids who will team up with the Jakarta-based Lightcraft on Nov 22, before the crazy antics of Berlin-based electro rockers Bonaparte on Nov 25. Then, on Nov 30, Christian Berg’s synthpop group Kite from Sweden will share the stage with Kyoto Protocol before, finally, they welcome in December with Brazilian indie-pop trio Turtle Giant (Dec 13).
