SUN 26 SEP

ZONE 4 – ESPLANADE PARK STAGE

Vanessa Fernandez is one of the lead vocalists in one of Singapore's most successful English music export, Urban Xchange; as well as the lead singer in the quirky yet popular space-rock outfit, Parking Lot Pimp.

Arguably Singapore's best female vocalist, for the 26-year-old, music was never a choice, but what she was born to do. At 12, she was part of a church choir and performed at various school events. Four years later she became a member of The Singapore Repertory Theatre Young Company acting in several plays and musicals including a leading role in Dick Lee's Re:mix. In 2000, her group Urban Xchange took Singapore and the region by storm. The regionally successful band had a song featured on the Rush House 2 soundtrack, sang on a specially repackaged Asian edition of Brian McKnight's"Superhero" album, was nominated at the MTV Asia Awards 2002, and performed with Stacie Orrico at the MTV Asia Awards 2004. Later she became the lead female vocalist in the band, Parking Lot Pimp, featured by MTV as their first local artist on their Advance Warning programme, and chosen to be Singled-Out by Channel [V].
