Rewind Episode - Ginette Chittick

Lion City Rock

This rewind episode features one of our earliest guests: Ginette Chittick, whom we think is an artist in every sense of the word.

She joined the all-girl punk band Psycho Sonique without really how to play bass. But isn't what punk is all about? Psycho Sonique was a key band of Singapore's then-fledgling indie scene in the 1990s, and they made young hormonal teens drool with their spitfire shows on stages in Singapore and Malaysia.

Their performances, along with an EP, We Can Do It, showcased a "just do it" attitude better than any shoe with a swoosh. Ginette later joined Astreal, a band whose ethereal music was a full one-eighty from the frenzied sounds of Psycho Sonique. Since then, she has done everything and anything: from starting her own fashion label to publishing a zine; to becoming an educator, working with textile art, and spinning tracks as a DJ, most recently at the Daydream Nation gig earlier in June '23.

Is there nothing she won't do? Well...
