Mari 3 years ago

Just under two weeks since the release of Another Little Postcard, Amanda Ong premieres her self-made music video where she shows the process of her mailing out 100 postcards to her family and friends all over the world. The video is available on YouTube.

Another Little Postcard is a collection of letters that Amanda has written to herself over the years. It captures memories from her youth – her first relationship, studying overseas – to adulthood, a career switch, and more.

In line with the song release, she has written and mailed almost 100 postcards to her family and friends in Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, Pakistan, Japan, America and even Switzerland – the cover art designed by Chris Chew being displayed on the picture-side of the postcard. The music video shows the entire process, including scenes of the actual letters she’s written to herself from the past.

Following this release, Amanda’s next few songs will touch on her time overseas, exploring travel and long-distance relationships. Her next release, Leave Me Alone (Cakasaurus remix), will be out on 6 August 2021.
