An independent artist with no label, Trench has been playing the guitar for over 20 years. His instruments include the Acoustic, Electric and Classical Guitar, as well as Harp, Piano, Drums, Harmonica, Accordion, Banjo, Ukulele, Mandolin, Glockenspiel, Kalimba, Violin, and Cello. His loyal furry sidekick, Maple, sometimes plays along on the drums.

“I started with an electric guitar when I was about 8, but I didn’t take the instrument that seriously until I was 12-13 when I bought an acoustic guitar,” writes Trench on his personal website. “Aside from a few basic guitar/piano lessons, I’m self taught with all the instruments I play. I learned to read sheet music and would spend hours every day sight reading anything I could find online. Learning a lot of classical/flamenco music helped develop my Fingerstyle guitar techniques.”

While Trench decided to stay anonymous (“I never wanted to be famous so I prefer for the focus to be on the music, the instrument,” he writes), Maple – a mixed breed with part Border Collie, Golden Retriever and Shetland Sheepdog – is the real star of the show. More recently, the band has been joined by the newest addition to the family – rescue pup named Cherry.

“On my website my slogan is ‘Not Art Not Music Not Fashion Not Performance,’” she told Totally Stockholm, adding: “I guess it’s a provocative statement saying, that maybe my work is a hybrid of all those disciplines. In Grebnellaw I work with all those genres but for me the core is song-writing. The songs are what make the wheels spin and that generate all the performance activities.”

Her performances have been showcased around the world in some of the most prestigious venues, which include the Guggenheim Museum, MoMA, and the Coliseum in Rome.

An ongoing creative process that uses pop music, visual art, and performative elements to address contemporary issues, it also acts as a liberating force from social pressure and prejudice with ad-hoc performances that happen in the moment. The performances are site-specific, using the “three-minute-pop song” format and a red and white color code to communicate an easily recognizable style. 

Talking about her inspiration, Wallenberg-Olsson recalled: “I think while growing up I had a volume of The Red and the Black by Stendahl in my bookshelf and later it was referenced by Jacques Brel in his song ‘Me Me Quitte Pas’. I actually never read the book, but I was intrigued by the title, the anarchist colours. For me, I thought red and white would make a more relevant marriage – it’s minimalistic, a reduction, a way to deal with the multiple choices of capitalism. It’s also saying we’re pretty – but don’t eat us, we are deadly!”

In another series, Heng Swee imagined how Star Wars characters would look if they were under the weather. “The Star Bored series of illustrations shows that everyone has their own down time,” he shared on Bored Panda. “But don’t worry, all you have to do is lay down and have a rest, the force will be with you again in no time.”

This little boy was astonished when he heard the sound of a violin for the first time in his life. He immediately stood up and ran towards the violinist. He stares intently as the music plays and is not distracted for one second.

As the music continues to play, the baby goes in to give the violinist a warm hug. It was probably a thank you gift for playing such soothing sounds.

It is possible that this child is naturally drawn to music and this is why he reacted the way he did. Who knows, he could be a musical maestro in the making. The video was shared by the toddler’s mother on Twitter.
