Filipino city pop band ALYSON is set to present its first major concert with a full orchestra through AFTER OURS: Live and in Full!, happening on July 17, 2026, at Aster Events Place in Mandaluyong City.
The special performance will bring the band’s acclaimed sophomore album, AFTER OURS, to life through orchestral arrangements, immersive production, and reimagined live performances, marking the group’s most ambitious concert to date.
Known for blending Manila Sound, Japanese city pop, Brazilian funk, ’80s OPM, and jazz, the five-piece band will perform the album in its entirety alongside a full orchestra. The production also represents a significant creative milestone, with the members taking a more active role in co-producing the show and shaping its artistic direction.
“We’ve been rehearsing for this show as a band for a long time now, so we’re confident that we can put on a good show,” the band said in a statement.
“We’ve also been rehearsing with our orchestra, and it’s another experience to hear our music played altogether like this with so many talented people. The production team and our management have also been working double time to get this show off the ground, so we’re truly thankful for all their help.”
In addition to the orchestral collaboration, ALYSON teased several surprises for concertgoers, including potential guest performers and exclusive setlist additions.
“While we make no secret of the involvement of the orchestra and their hand in elevating our performance, we think there’s still room for surprises,” the band shared. “Maybe some special guest or two, maybe some unexpected numbers. What we can say is that it’s a setlist you can only see at a show like this. You’ll have to be there to find out.”
Beyond showcasing the band’s music, AFTER OURS: Live and in Full! reflects years of artistic growth and collaboration, offering fans a more intimate and immersive concert experience.
“This is, to date, the largest and most involved show we’ve ever done,” ALYSON said.
“We’ve never played anything with this many people involved on and off the stage. It’s honestly evolved into something we never imagined we’d be able to do. We’re just happy to share this moment with everyone who’s supported us and treat them to an experience that’s beyond even what we imagined when we started this.”
The concert also precedes another milestone for the band as it prepares for its international festival debut at the AXEAN Festival 2026 in Bali, Indonesia, scheduled for Aug. 29 to 30 at Jimbaran Hub.
AFTER OURS: Live and in Full! is co-presented by Offshore Music PH and GNN, with support from ONErpm. Tickets remain available through https://afterours.helixpay.ph/.
