More about, Lokies Khan, singer & performer:

Singing from the age of four, Lokies Khan’s love for music has always been prominent. He had a 5-month residential stint at Speakeasy,and has also performed in other well-known venues, including Home Club, NUSS Guild House, FIVE Izakaya bar, Temasek Club and Hatched. Influenced by a broad spectrum of music, he cites Alicia Keys, Ella Fitzgerald, Lana Del Rey & Christina Aguilera as his biggest influence in his artistry.

Lokies’ voice has often been described as unusually intriguing. With his versatility, he blows away with strength, mellows down low, demonstrates eccentrics with his range & softens with gentleness. And when he isn’t singing, he moonlights as a DJ.
