Racing beats

The Singapore Grand Prix isn't just for people who like watching noisy cars go round and round; it's for music lovers as well and this year's off-track concert line-up has something for everyone.

Headliners include 1980s new wave icons Duran Duran playing not one but two nights; hitmakers Ariana Grande and The Chainsmokers double-billing the Padang Stage on Saturday; pop star Seal performing at the intimate Village Stage; and superstar DJ Calvin Harris closing this year's race with a bang.

Flying the Singapore flag and performing at various venues around the track are rappers Shigga Shay and TheLionCityBoy, R&B pop divas Tabitha Nauser and Vandetta, neo-soul singer-songwriter Sam Rui, vocal group MICappella, indie band Stopgap, and the DJs from Zouk.
