In its advocacy to support the latest and the best independent artists and groups the Philippines has to offer, record label giant MCA Music (a Universal Music Group company) has put-together an impressive assembly of the hottest acts from the Philippines – and beyond our native shores \u2013 this 2017 with its one-of-a-kind music initiative in the form of GetMusic Indie-Go<\/em>, the first and possibly largest of its kind to be held in a major concert venue, previously lorded-over only by international acts.<\/p>\n

A press conference was held at Raffles Corporate Center in Ortigas on May 5, and attended by some of the artists who’ll be performing at GetMusic Indie-Go\u00a0<\/em>on May 20th at the Mall of Asia Arena– Autotelic, Ninno, Miles Experience, Conscious and The Goodness, Reese Lansangan, She’s Only Sixteen, and Gab of Urbandub.<\/p>\n

The stage is set to be\u00a0in small, intimate club settings and promises to be one for the books: packed and cohesive sets, with an international style and standard.<\/p>\n

With creative direction by Paolo Valenciano and his team, concertgoers and loyal fans are in for a treat they will not be able to get anywhere else. Riddled with special extended, multi-membered band setups, extra horn-section setups and visuals that\u2019ll surely mesmerize audiences of various ages. So fans better have their cameras and cellphones ready to capture the many memorable moments.<\/p>\n

As expected, there\u2019s more to this campaign than the furthering of the concert itself \u2013 as there is also a cultural exchange-component of the show, wherein the celebration of great independent musicextends beyond our shores, as Malaysia\u2019s powerhouse rock outfit AN HONEST MISTAKE\u00a0<\/strong>joins-in on the festivities, and represents their country as one that shares the common vision and support for excellent independent music of the millennium.<\/p>\n

And there\u2019s more! In an effort to interact and possibly discover the next big artist, MCA Music has also tied-up with the country\u2019s top colleges and schools, and will be engaging the students of institutions like the University of The Philippines, The University of Santo Tomas, Ateneo De Manila University and La Salle University online, as each University votes for their specific independent band-representative, who in turn, will be opening the festivities early-on in a satellite stage at the lobby of the MOA Arena. This will surely help inspire the next batch of songwriters and musicians, and will definitely keep the flame of independent music and creativity alive at its primary source. The show will start at an early 2pm.<\/p>\n

So don\u2019t be the only music fan NOT at this show, because again \u2013 this is definitely the biggest gathering of the year, and you can be sure that it\u2019s just the start of something big for local music. Simply do your part by being a part of it!<\/p>\n
