Singaporean singer Leon Markcus’ “Welcome to Hot City” Virtual Tour kicked off last month but the fun isn’t over yet, as the tour will continue to be held throughout this month until January 2021!
If you missed out on the October livestream, here’s a little recap: it began with an intimate Reimagined: Livesession, with fans helping to revamp the “Hot City” single, plus a glimpse into the behind-the-scenes of music-making and the people behind the works of Leon’s music and inspiration.
Next, Leon warmed audiences’ hearts with the summer-esque Acoustics Live session, covering songs from the E.P, followed by the Lyric Dissect hosted together with Erwin from LetsBeReal Podcast in a comical battle of wits to avoid eating spicy foods. On Halloween, fans were also treated to Leon’s “escape” into the darkness in collaboration with The EscapeArtist.
As to what fans can look forward to from this month until early next year, it’s as stated in the poster below.
