What is Live Out Loud: Battle of the Bands? NParks Live Out Loud (LOL) began in 2015 as an open mic programme for local amateur performers at selected park venues. In support of local artistes and musicians, LOL became a platform for various performers to showcase their talents. In 2017, LOL became a signature programme at Parkland Green (East Coast Park).

Join us every 2nd Saturday of the month at Parkland Green (East Coast Park). Audience votes matter. YOU have a say in who wins so gather your friends and family for a party by the beach and help us discover Singapore's next big music talent!
Featured Bands 1 12 May 2 1 The Peppertree Band envisions a colourful world of music and poetry, with jangling guitars and some serious rock ‘n roll grooves. Made up of a passionate bunch of ordinary people who just love music, every member brings something complimenting to the music palette. 2 The Winonas are sisters who have always been jamming together at home because of their passion for music. While 3 they live separately now, coming together to practise and perform helps them to keep their bond strong. 3 Trust The Chaos 4 is a 5-piece alternative rock band whose music can be described as an eclectic mix of punk, metal and rock ‘n roll, with a cohesive blend of soaring vocals, catchy guitar riffs and thumping bass, complemented with foot stomping beats. The result is a collection of tunes that are driving, fist-pumping anthems that are as cathartic to play as they are to hear. 4 TRU+VE (pronounced ‘true positive’) is made up of passionate musicians – individually experienced in various live performances – with a focus on rock-pop music.
Featured Bands 9 June 1 1 2 Bonded together by a passion for music, D’Reverie met while pursuing their Music Diploma in LASALLE, whereas the guitarist and vocalist played together in a J-rock cover band since 2015. Forming a new line-up, they aspire to rock out the crowd with fresh tunes in the pop-rock genre. 2 Gorilla Gritz are a bunch of five who share an unspoken chemistry in music. They love their songs with some distortion and sustain; not the mundane. A chorus of 3 melodies and rhythmic beats. They don't do pretty; they do gritty. 4 3 JEM Band is a Mandarin rock cover band. They love what they do and have developed an amazing on-stage chemistry and passion to give their audience the best music which will touch their hearts. They believe music brings people together. They are JEM - Just Enjoy Music. 4 SKYJAM is a five-piece group with a love for rock ballads, R&B/soul and pop from the 60s to present. With an adventurous and diverse musical taste, they also dabble in different sounds ranging from classic rock to the top 40s. From their formation in 2016 until today, SKYJAM has performed in numerous events, including NParks Live Out Loud, PAssionArts, charity shows, private club events, and open mics.
