Good Vibes Festival (GVF) is one of the most anticipated music events in the region. From July 21 to 23, it will be celebrating its 10-year anniversary at Sepang International Circuit.
“GVF has grown by leaps and bounds since its inception as a single-day music festival. This year, we are expanding to three days, with over 20 international acts, including The Strokes, The 1975, and Sabrina Carpenter,” says Wan Alman Ariffin, director of entertainment at the independent event agency behind GVF, Future Sound Asia.
“We’ve always been music fans, attending Fuji Rock Festival in Japan and Coachella in the US. When we started, we wanted to put Malaysia on the map as one of the major destinations for international music acts and we’re proud to see how GVF has carved out its own lane in the festival landscape.”
Over the last decade, GVF has also become a platform to showcase the immense talent in Malaysia and Southeast Asia. “When they share the stage with some of the biggest acts in the world, they gain invaluable insight into how world-class musicians work. We’re so happy to be able to contribute to the local music scene in this way,” says Alman.
In the spirit of uplifting local talent, we put the spotlight on three Malaysians who are making waves with their music.
