About this Song
Six members bring distinct, complementary skills to every recording Sugarcane creates, each role shaping the warm, intentional sound that has become the band’s signature across their work rooted in Manila, the Philippines’ base for a vast range of popular and folk musical acts. Cedric Angeles anchors the group’s core sound on vocals and guitar, while Carl Guerzon adds depth on vocals and bass, and Ronamae Tiñola brings the distinct texture of flute to every track, a layer that underscores the folk elements the band weaves into their work. Lead guitarist Frain Reyes, keyboardist Luis Beato, and drummer Froilan Bautista round out the six-piece lineup, building arrangements that balance the accessibility of pop music with the richness of traditional folk storytelling, a combination that has earned the band a reputation for crafting emotionally compelling work that resonates deeply with listeners.
