About this Song
Long before they cracked the national mainstream, the group that would become one of the Philippines’ most prominent pop-rock acts cut their teeth playing small stages across their home province of Cebu, a region with a long history of nurturing musicians who bring a distinct, regionally rooted flair to the country’s broader pop landscape. Formed in 1998, the collective spent years refining their sound, building a loyal local following that would sustain their move to Manila, the country’s bustling capital and the undisputed center of its national music industry, as they worked to turn their regional success into a career that could reach audiences across every island of the archipelago. That long-awaited breakthrough arrived in 2005, when the band’s work resonated with millions of listeners across the country, catapulting them from a beloved local act into a household name.
