You know, there’s been sort of small standup comedy scene here in KL. Not too many places though for budding comedians to perform. We at the Homegrown Space want to give you comedians, another platform, though a bit smaller, for you to show people what you’ve got. Take the Homegrown Space as a kind of a testing ground so to say. But hey, if you’re good, and with our promotions, you could be the next best thing! Check out this next clip which was recorded at the launch of the space. This is Andrew Netto and he’s on his way to becoming one of Malaysia’s best!
Another interesting development in KL is the Spoken Word scene. I’ve been in the local entertainment business for some time now, and i’ve never seen this many acts! This is awesome! And this Sunday, 24 of May, we’re having Illya Shahira, Afi Momo, Negarakus, Rahmat Haron and get this, A. Samad Said! It’s amazing that he’s agreed to this at the space! To give you guys who haven’t had a taste of the spoken word, check out this clip from Dizzy and The recorded at the Homegrown Space launch recently.
Please keep in mind that it’s going to be another power packed weekend this week and most importantly, please come and support our local music scene la. Remember, it’s all FREE!
Cheers,
Michael Simon

Hi Jenny,
We’ll definitely put it up soon. We’re just finalising the homegrowntv website and you’ll be able to see complete performances of the acts who’ve performed at the space. Just hang in there and if possible, do register as a VIP so we can alert you when the videos are up. Thanks for your support.
