About this Song
Rooted in the rich, diverse landscape of Philippine popular music, the work that coalesced into Moonlane Gardens draws from a lineage of groups that redefined local alternative and indie sounds across the turn of the 21st century, tying together the creative arc of a band that began its journey in 1999, when singer-songwriter and guitarist Clem Castro joined forces with drummer Ace Del Mundo and his brother JM del Mundo on bass to launch what would become one of the country’s most commercially and critically celebrated pop acts. From its formation, the group counted Mcoy Fundales as a second vocalist, a role he held through the band’s initial run up to its first pause in 2007, and their collective sound wove together strains of alternative rock, indie pop, and experimental music, shaped heavily by cross-generational influences spanning British cult favorites The Smiths, legendary pop pioneers The Beatles, and seminal local trailblazers the Eraserheads.
