When it comes to music, music videos are important supplements to what we can hear as they stimulate our visual senses in a way that sound cannot.
From creative homemade projects to cinematic works that beg to be seen on a big screen, all forms of music videos are released by Singapore's talented musicians seeking to extend the stories told in their songs every month. In this monthly series, we will be rounding up the latest releases from our sunny island that might fly under the radar.

MICappella - 'Here We Are'
MICappella deliver a heart-pounding rock twist on 'Here We Are', this year’s National Day tune (originally sung by Charlie Lim, Kit Chan and The Island Voices) — and it’s a full family affair. Featuring their own kids (aged 18 months to 10 years), the a cappella group pairs soaring vocals with adorable home-drawn animations of rainbows and sandcastles. The video evolves into a celebration of Singapore, blending skyline projections and National Day nostalgia with a montage of MICappella’s international highlights. Directed by Diana Tan, this warm and powerful rework celebrates legacy, home, and the dreams we pass on.
inch - 'woolsuit'
Directed by TZECHAR, this music video pairs kinetic 3D animations and striking 2D visuals with inch’s acerbic lyrics and punchy vocals. From sheep in suits to glitchy pyramid schemes, the video plays out like a warning wrapped in pop-rock rebellion and video game / anime visuals — dissecting blind consumerism, curated identities, and algorithmic living. Powered by Anthony Paul Lopez's slick production and inch’s razor-sharp songwriting, ‘woolsuit’ is a stylish middle finger to the status quo—chaotic, clever, and impossible to ignore.
YAØ - 'Geisha'
Bathed in crimson, YAØ sings—"beauty in the nightmare"—while striking footage of geishas transfix the viewer, symbolising grace under emotional duress. The lyrics pop like bold confessions amid gorgeous animation and moving cityscapes, syncing with the track’s smooth, city pop-laced R&B groove. Produced by MR HWANG and PravOnTheLoose, and written by YAØ himself, this lyric video for an already great song is a visual treat.
Mary Sue and The Clementi Sound Appreciation Club - PK Live Sessions
Directed, recorded, and mixed by Gareth Christopher Chew and Ian Lee, Mary Sue and the Clementi Sound Appreciation Club deliver a magnetic outdoor live performance for PK Records that blends sonic storytelling with raw instrumental finesse. Featuring Daniel Alex Chia, Bryan De Rosario, Russell Seow, Kenzo Nagari, and Farizi, the video captures the band’s full-bodied chemistry and tight musicianship as they breathe life into a set that feels as much ritual as it is recital. Under the natural light and lush ambiance, Sue’s poetic delivery sits seamlessly against the band’s textured arrangement—producing a moment that feels both intimate and mythic.
Music & Drama Company - 'Here We Are (Reimagined)'
To celebrate Singapore’s 60th birthday, the Music & Drama Company proudly presents ‘Here We Are (Reimagined)’, a powerful musical tribute that honours the nation’s journey, resilience, and unwavering spirit. Originally written by Charlie Lim and Chok Kerong, this refreshed rendition unites MDC’s singers, dancers, and musicians in a heartfelt collaboration that reflects what it means to grow, strive, and stand together as one. With soaring vocals by talents like Aaron Bunac, Dominic Chin, RINES, and more, along with expressive dance and evocative visuals directed by Gareth Christopher, the video pulses with national pride. From frontline workers to young performers, each frame is a moving reminder: "Here we are—for Singapore, with love".
MAO.A - 'SEVER'
The music video for 'SEVER', the debut single from visual kei band MAO.A delivers a gripping blend of gothic visuals and raw emotion—mirroring its journey through the five stages of grief. With Japanese and English lyrics swinging between harsh screams and melodic passages, the track is as tender as it is brutal. Visually, the video is a cross-border production featuring Shibari performance by Thailand’s UnnamedMinor and cinematography by Russia’s Tricksterfox3D, punctuating each beat with dramatic tension . Rooted in the band’s warrior‑gene ethos, 'SEVER' sets the tone for their fire‑charged debut EP HAKAI and establishes MAO.A as a theatrical force in Singapore’s vibrant visual kei revival.
