About

What is this?
This is the product of a music fan who can’t do well with music instruments, but have a world to say about something she loves and sometimes loathes. Backseat Radio II is just another music blog site, giving you everything and anything I can write about music.

Why Backseat Radio II?
‘Backseat Radio’ is something I came up with, inspired slightly by lyrics from Meat Loaf’s Objects in the Mirror May Appear Closer: “I’m in the back seat with my Julie like a Romeo”. That was three years ago for a friend’s music blog. Hence, the ‘II’ because there is one out there already. There was an unannounced hiatus, before I decided I still would very much like to write about music. So, here we go again. Let’s see how long this lasts.

Who’s running Backseat Radio II?
Me. I am a writer by day, gig-goer in between. I frequent concerts in Malaysia and Singapore, as well as local gigs in Kuala Lumpur. I write for a magazine, music as well. I enjoy sleeping in on weekends, and singing aloud while driving. And I think Olivia Wilde is awesome.

What’s in store for music fans at Backseat Radio II?

How do I contribute to Backseat Radio II?

Or your very own playlist you would like to show off. Or an awesome gig shot you would like me to check out. You can contact me at your own risk.
