KALA CHNG (Live performance)
KALA CHNG is a half-Chinese British Pop music artist from Knowle West, Bristol, UK. As songwriter, singer and producer she creates an original blend of Pop music with Chinese sounds and urban influences (influenced by Bristol bass, grime and dubstep beats, classical Chinese instruments, catchy pop lines, and R&B). “She combines both traditional and electronic sounds to create some quite distinctive pop…Kala always makes sure her unique attitude shines through.” Loki Lillistone, Editor, Bristol Live Magazine
Subitha (Spoken word performance)
Subitha Baghirathan is a Sri Lankan who whole-heartedly made Bristol her home in
1999. She became a published author through local independent publisher, Tangent
Books, in 2012. “The Colours of Sand” is a memoir of her 2 ½ years living in Saudi Arabia with her family. She has now returned to writing poetry, as a way of exploring motherhood, becoming a practising Buddhist and living as a feminist Woman of Colour.
