Bicol—renowned for its fiery cuisine, historical sites, diverse marine life, and breathtaking natural wonders—takes center stage as it hosts the fundraising concert Musika Para Sa Bikol: Himig ng Bayanihan.

On 06 December 2024, the Ibalong Centrum for Recreation (ICR) in Legazpi City will be the setting for a night of music that brings together community and a shared love for one of the Philippines’ beloved regions.

Musika Para Sa Bikol: Himig ng Bayanihan, also serves as a reminder that Bicol is more than just a place—it’s an experience, a feeling, and a source of pride for all Filipinos.

This fundraising concert is a testament to the Filipino spirit of bayanihan, uniting people to support those in need. Net proceeds and donations will go toward immediate relief efforts, as well as long-term recovery projects to help the region bounce back stronger than ever. An exciting and diverse lineup of musical acts will make for an unforgettable night of entertainment. The public can expect performances from Bicol’s homegrown talent Tothapi, South Korean sensation Kim Ji-Soo, British post-punk and glam metal band Gene Loves Jezebel, and Norwegian hitmakers Fra Lippo Lippi.

The nine-piece collective aims to revolutionize headline shows with an innovative mix of animation, film, and music performances.

Filipino band Ben&Ben is set to redefine the live concert experience with an audio-visual extravaganza that seamlessly blends animation, film, and music performances into one immersive package. Their upcoming arena show, scheduled for December 14, 2024, at SM Mall of Asia Arena, promises to be a groundbreaking event in the local music scene.

Inspired by their highly anticipated third studio album, The Traveller Across Dimensions, the concert will introduce a new dimension of storytelling, combining live music with cutting-edge multimedia elements. The upcoming album, which pushes the boundaries of traditional music releases, will serve as the foundation for this innovative concert, thematically and conceptually speaking.

Ben&Ben has partnered with a talented team of concert directors, designers, and multimedia artists to create an animation-concert hybrid that will transport the concert-going audience into a magical, world-building realm. Working alongside Puppeteer Studios, the Pagtingin hitmakers will also introduce a cast of unique characters and an immersive universe that promises to captivate the audience from start to finish.

“We’re thrilled to share the story of Liwanag, the titular character in The Traveller Across Dimensions,” the nine-piece act explains in a collective statement. “We’ve shown a glimpse of this story in our “Triumph” music video, but the concert will reveal the full narrative in a way that no one has seen before.”

This special concert is designed to exude a cinematic experience, integrating the excitement of a live performance with the confines of filmmaking. Ben&Ben’s The Traveller Across Dimensions concert aims to elevate the theatricality of their previous shows, hinting at exploring new, interactive technology to further enhance the show.

“It’s also the first time we will be incorporating Liwanag LED wristbands as part of the immersive experience,” the critically acclaimed act shares. “We are working with Pixmob, the same tech provider as some of the international concerts we’ve attended in the past.”

In terms of the setlist, the concert will feature a dynamic mix of crowd favorites, personal picks, and new songs from their latest album. In keeping up with their signature style, Ben&Ben have meticulously arranged the lineup of songs to align with the overarching narrative. This helps in bringing an integrated storytelling experience to the live stage.

“It’s a delicate balance between staying true to what fans love and offering something new,” the band adds. “We’re excited to bring these songs to life in a way that’s never been done before.”
