ABOUT THIS BAND

THIS BAND

This Band was founded by Euwie Loria on rhythm guitar; John Macaranas on drums and Miccael Galvan on bass. The trio was serviceable, but they knew they had to have a complete package to present during their gigs. Most particularly the vocalist, who has the right voice and style to showcase Loria’s original compositions at its best. That right singer came in the person of Andrea Manzano, a young singer who was also in search of the right sound for her voice. Andrea and the light soul pop music of This Band proved to be the perfect fit. A short while later, Melvin Carson on keyboards and Raymart Gubat on lead guitars came on board. And the package that This Band was looking for was finally complete. Loria is proving to be quite prodigious with his songwriting. This early, they have already released four singles. Leading their line up is of course their breakthrough hit, the hugot love song Kahit Ayaw Mo Na. This is the song that broke into the global charts. It remains a huge big seller and was also tapped to be the theme song of the movie of the same title. There are also Bitaw Na, Tampisaw and their latest, Hindi Na Nga. These songs are proving to be very good crowd drawers in This Band’s gigs. That is the way to do it for any band aspiring to hit the big time. Find a solid footing with hit originals and the fans will follow. This Band has hit on the right formula. Songs of heartbreak rendered in Andrea’s dusky tones with a light rock vibe. Turn out more of these and This Band will be around for a long, long time. They have released new songs and albums at this time since. -philstar
