   About TypeWriter
Chang Kang, Patrick, Desmond & Wan - TypeWriter.

With a line-up that hails like a who's who in the Singapore indie-rock scene, TypeWriter could easily be touted as an indie superband.

The band owes its musical influences to the Pop-Underground movement which includes inspirational songwriters like Big Star, Weezer, Wilco, Aimee Mann and Elvis Costello.

TypeWriter celebrates the love for that great craft of passionate songwriting with their exuberant spirit, infectious melodies and
honest words.

So Open Up Your Hearts And Be Moved.

OUR ALBUM
We are now taking some quality time off to focus on crafting our album.
Should be out in 2010. It will be great.

STOMPCAST

Patrick Chng is supported by Gibson Guitar.
