Jameson’s citywide music movement returns on May 17 with a full-throttle showcase of Southeast Asian talent, curated cocktails, and a first look at the brand’s new bottle designed by Anderson .Paak.
Jameson Irish Whiskey is back with the next edition of Jameson Distilled Sounds, and this time, it’s taking over The Zhongshan Building with a genre-bending lineup, curated food and cocktails, and an exclusive preview of Jameson’s latest limited-edition bottle, created in collaboration with global ‘Music Distiller’ and Grammy-winner, Anderson .Paak.
Kicking off on Saturday, May 17, 2025 at 6pm, the one-night-only event will showcase 18 Southeast Asian artists across multiple venues, blending sounds from indie, soul, deep house, and electronic genres with the smooth vibe Jameson is known for.
At the heart of the action is The Courtyard, where Malaysian talents like Talitha Tan and Saint Kylo share the stage with Thailand’s genre-fluid NOTEP, alongside groove-heavy sets from Su San, Daaliah, Kent Lee, and X.U.
Upstairs, Kantata Rooftop will keep the tempo high with DJ sets from No One, Sheryn, Raven, Diorck, and B from Manipulated Mood Group. Alternative scene icons Chaseylain and Ribut 1059 of Twilight Actiongirl will close out the night with a back-to-back set that fuses old-school and new-school sounds.
Meanwhile, Triptyk turns up the flavour with Jameson-infused cocktails by expert mixologists Angel Ji and Steve Foo, plus live sets by Viene and Vanns Ngo. A surprise tech-house Hijack Session will keep the night going late.
There’s plenty to keep you fuelled, too—Triptyk will offer bold bites and creative pairings, including yakitori skewers by Pixies & Vespers and tacos from Calle Taco. Kantata rounds things out with late-night comfort food to match the beats.
Don’t miss the one-day promo at Poppy Records in the Zhongshan Annexe: buy the limited-edition Jameson x Anderson .Paak bottle and get a vinyl of your choice—on the house.
🎟️ Entry is free but registration is required. The first 200 guests before 8pm get a complimentary Jameson, Ginger Ale, & Lime to start the night right.
