Live Nation is thrilled to announce the Melbourne-raised artist RINI in Asia! RINI is set to perform in Manila on 19 July 2023 at the Samsung Hall in SM Aura Premier as part of his PAST THE NAKED EYE 2023 TOUR.
Justerini Sandoval, also known as RINI, is a singer, songwriter, producer, and guitarist who hails from Melbourne, Australia. RINI’s presence has become an online sensation with the release of his most recent extended play (EP), titled “After the Sun.” He has over 20 million plays on Spotify alone, over 550 thousand subscribers on YouTube, and over 200 thousand followers on Instagram and Facebook combined.
As a Filipino-Australian artist, his sound has been influenced by Frank Ocean, Daniel Caesar, Kehlani, Bryson Tiller and The Weeknd. Within the short span of a year, the young up-and-comer’s growth on a personal level bleeds into his music, delivering us material that not only would hit the charts, but is full of profound meaning, a rarity scarcely found in the climate of today’s industry, some might call this EP an emerald. The EP is a soulful and euphonious sunset story that mainly talks about the beauty of women and the sweetness of another day, an appreciation of life. ‘After The Sun’ in its entirety is a love letter to life, and serves as a reminder to live it with the ones we love.
From the vocals to the words to the beats, everything the Melbourne artist does is a masterpiece. Rini has worked and played with some of Melbourne’s best artists, like Billy Davis, Jordan Dennis, Blasko, and Deandre Brackensick, since he first got on stage.
The 24-year-old songbird’s seductive falsetto and soul-stirring voice showed his songwriting’s emotional depth. His flowing, passionate approach transforms everyday details into romantic neo-soul visions. After emerging as a spectacular new talent prepared to prosper in today’s R&B market, RINI is laser-focused on pushing the frontiers of modern music with his unique approach, gathering over 376M plays across platforms and averaging 2.2M monthly Spotify listeners.
As we see him today, RINI is ready to showcase a new side of his artistry with UltraViolet, his sophomore EP arriving this Fall. “[UltraViolet] comes from a different place, of different influence,” says RINI. “It’s bolder, more upfront and a more dauntless version of RINI that translates into the sound of the EP. I’ve taken a different approach sonically and I could say that I’m taking a risk with some of the songs simply because it’s different to the usual vibe that you would expect to hear from me but that’s really the whole point of it. UltraViolet is the product of this.” UltraViolet is a pivot from the narrative introduced with RINI’s debut album, unearthing another side of his artistry that mirrors the changes he’s experienced since the pandemic. Unlike anything he’s released before, this project sets the tone for a new chapter in his sonics – one that is confident and courageous.
Tickets to public will go on-sale on Wednesday, 31 May at 12pm local time onwards via SMTickets.com and outlets nationwide. Visit livenation.ph for more details.

The legendary Backstreet Boys made their way back to the Philippines as part of their sold-out DNA World Tour. It had been almost four years since the group’s previous visit to the country.
The Backstreet Boys started the event off with “I Wanna Be With You” from 1996, making good use of the diamond stage’s steps, ramps, lighting, and numerous giant LED screens. Songs like “The Call” and “Don’t Want You Back” kept the band on the move.
A little over two-hour setlist that addressed every part of their career included more than thirty songs. Unlike other musicians who try to brush over their past work, these guys gave their all to the cheesy hits from the ’90s and ’00s that made them famous. It was nice to hear them played on its original arrangement. Their renditions of “We’ve Got It Goin’ On,” their debut single, “Quit Playing Games (With My Heart),” and “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back)” were so full of excitement and pride that they transported the audience back to their own childhoods.
The tempo was perfect for maintaining excitement. The newer material didn’t detract from the overall nostalgic vibe of the show, and I was happy to hear the favorites that I had played on repeat in my room as a preteen.
It’s not usually easy to get a group of five men to sing songs they released 27 years ago and still reach the same notes, but the Backstreet Boys pulled it off, with genuinely exceptional vocals from all five of them throughout the event. Whether it was Nick’s legendary singing, Brian’s beautiful falsetto, or the fantastic singing of AJ, Howie, and Kevin, the entire performance was a vocal masterclass, demonstrating the band’s unparalleled skill at producing harmonious vocal blends.
They not only sang their hearts out, but they also exhibited the comedic side of themselves. The audience watched as AJ and Kevin changed their costumes during the game they were playing. When AJ and Kevin threw their clothes to the crowd who was waiting for them, some lucky audience members were able to take something home with them.
When they celebrated Brian Littrell’s 48th birthday together with their banters while making fun of their ages, it was pretty telling how they are buddies beyond the shows and global tours that they do together.
The Backstreet Boys, if you haven’t seen them live, put on one heck of a show. Kevin and AJ prove to be a powerful double act, and their witty repartee with one another is just as entertaining as the album’s outstanding musical selections and impressive dance moves. The Mall of Asia Arena was put to good use with impressive staging and striking lighting that complements the incredible sound.
The Backstreet Boys’ 27-year reign at the top is due in no small part to their consistent high quality as performers. The performance they put on is larger than life in every sense of the phrase; it is polished to perfection, hilarious, and of the highest quality. On any other night, it would have been an unforgettable experience, but with the added depth of feeling, it becomes something you won’t soon forget. The boys’ stunning vocals and charisma onstage make them just as impressive today as they were back in the ’90s. Regardless matter how much I appreciated the band before the show, I came away from it appreciating them even more than I had before.
Live Nation Philippines is thrilled to announce that one of the best-selling bands of all time, Backstreet Boys, will bring their eagerly awaited DNA WORLD TOUR 2023 back to Manila due to high demand.
The Backstreet Boys have been one of the most important artists in pop music for the past 29 years. The Backstreet Boys are widely considered to be the most successful boy band ever, having achieved a string of number one singles, tour attendance records, critical acclaim, and record-breaking global album sales of over 130 million.
In 2019, RCA Records published “DNA,” BSB’s tenth studio album, which was nominated for a Grammy. This album features the Top 10 hit track “Don’t Go Breaking My Heart,” which was BSB’s first hit on the Billboard Hot 100 in over a decade and was nominated for a 2019 GRAMMY in the “Pop Duo / Group Performance” category. The song quickly became a worldwide hit after its release, topping the charts in over twenty-two countries and at number one on iTunes’ Top Songs and Global lists.
The Backstreet Boys’ ability to consistently appeal to a wide audience through their extensive record of hit songs and unique collaborations has allowed them to stay at the top of the charts for many years.
The Vamps are gearing up to celebrate a decade together with a Greatest Hits Tour on February 17 at the Mall of Asia Arena. Playing a bit from each album and celebrating all the best moments from the past 10 years.
The British pop-rock band began their career on YouTube and have become extremely popular over the past decade. In a short amount of time, they went from playing in their parents’ garage to playing in front of thousands at arenas.
The Vamps (consisting of Connor Ball, Bradley Simpson, Tristan Evans, and James Brittain-McVey) are the first band to headline London’s O2 for five consecutive years. They have over six billion streams, over two billion views on their YouTube channel, and have released five albums. Since their platinum-selling debut album, Meet The Vamps, hit number 2 on the UK charts in 2014, the band has kept up a dream-like pace of albums (four in total, including 2017’s chart-topping Night & Day (Night Edition), which includes the Matoma-assisted global smash All Night), singles (eight top 40 hits, including five top 10s), and world tours.
After the tour for 2018’s guest-heavy Top 3 hit Night & Day (Day Edition), the band took a short break. Just as they were making their new album, Cherry Blossom, a global pandemic hit. The title is a reflection of the album’s theme of rebirth.
It’s a new start for The Vamps. Their most personal and fully-formed work up to this point, led by the dirty, sky-high banger Married in Vegas was made from afar while the band was in lockdown. The forced rest gave the band the time and space to carefully plan what they wanted the album to be and say. The Vamps have changed from a bright-eyed boy band with instruments to a full-fledged pop band that makes hits for arenas.
LNPH presale is happening on November 8, 2022 from 10am to 11:59pm via livenation.ph and November 9, 2022 will be the general onsale via smtickets.com and outlets nationwide.
This is not a dream, The Vamps is coming back to the Philippines! 🎉

The Mall of Asia Arena bloomed beautifully in the colors of rose quartz and serenity as SEVENTEEN and their Filipino Carats met again to light up the Philippine concert stage!
South Korean boy group SEVENTEEN proved its relentless influence and power with back-to-back sold-out SEVENTEEN World Tour – BE THE SUNin Manila last October 8 and 9 at the Mall of Asia Arena.
The concerts signified the return of S.Coups, Jeonghan, Joshua, Jun, Hoshi, Wonwoo, Woozi, The8, Mingyu, DK, Seungkwan, Vernon, and Dino to the Philippine concert stage after more than two years since their last solo concert in the country. And for leader S.Coups, the BE THE SUN in Manila shows were more special as they marked his reunion with his Filipino fans after more than four years after missing out on the last concert due to health reasons.
With lightsticks on hand and cheers roaring loud and proud for their favorite boys, Carats welcomed them back to the local concert stage with superb enthusiasm as SEVENTEEN kicked off the highly anticipated two-day concerts last October 8 with a parade of sizzling hot and energetic performances of their hits “HOT”, “March”, and “HIT”.

SEVENTEEN right here
“Say the Name, SEVENTEEN!Hello, we are SEVENTEEN!” —and after more than two years, the boy group, led by S.Coups, greeted their Filipino fans with their signature greeting and expressed their joy in coming back to the country after a long time. The members cutely tried their best to deliver their messages in Filipino, saying “na-miss namin kayo“, “mahal namin kayo“, and more.
Joshua also added, “It’s been a long time since the last time we came here. We’re finally back and we are really, really excited. We’re back with our tour, Be the Sun. We really wanted to show you guys a good performance today and just like the title states, “be the sun”, we want to be your light. So let’s have fun tonight, guys!”
Like in their previous concert tours, the members prepared a chant and a gesture for the world tour — “SEVENTEEN Carat, be the sun!” And with that cue, the boys wasted no time in captivating their audience by performing “Rock with You”.
Amplifying Be The Sun in Manila concerts with Unit Performances
The members of SEVENTEEN firmly displayed their immense talents and abilities with spectacular performances, never allowing the enthusiasm in the room to die down. Kicking off the unit performances, Joshua and Vernon commanded the stage with their duet of “2-1”.
The performance team impressed with the confident and attractive stages of “Moonwalker” and “Wave”, while the vocal team serenaded the crowd with their soothing voices in “Come to Me” and “Imperfect Love”. “Manila, we missed you, guys so much. You guys can sing along to the song, right?” Joshua said. And with a resounding yes and the prettiest ocean of Carat bongs, Filipino Carats beautifully serenaded SEVENTEEN with “Imperfect Love”. The hip-hop team then dominated the concert stage with a blistering stage performance of “Gam3 Bo1” and “Back It Up” to close out the unit performances.

Returning to the stage as a complete team, SEVENTEEN performed a relay of their greatest hits, “Mansae” featuring Vernon’s rendition of Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies”, a fun stage of “Left & Right” from their 2020 extended play Heng:garæ, and the ever-iconic “Aju Nice” that got everyone jumping up and down.
Coming into SEVENTEEN’s World
After the playful stages, S.Coups, Jeonghan, Joshua, Jun, Hoshi, Wonwoo, Woozi, The8, Mingyu, DK, Seungkwan, Vernon, and Dino unleashed their charismatic sides once more, delivering spectacular performances of “Shadow” and “Crush”, from their albums Face the Sun and Attacca, respectively.
With never-ending surprises and treats for their Carats, the boys donned impromptu mini-performances mid-ment. Woozi sang a snippet of his solo song “Ruby”, while Seungkwan sang a bit of Harry Styles’ “As It Was”. Wonwoo and Dino hyped the crowd with “Gam3 Bo1” and “Clap”, respectively. The8 also sampled his solo song “Side by Side”, while Hoshi made sure to deliver his tiger agenda with a freestyle “Tiger” song. (Note: Hoshi achieved his horanghae agenda early in the concert as he made Carats do tiger paws with him :D).
The members also repeatedly commended the energy and passion of Filipino Carats. Hoshi expressed his admiration for the unwavering energy of their fans, saying “I like the energy of Manila so much!”. DK echoed this, describing the energy as “crazy” as booming and tireless cheers enveloped the arena from the start until the very end.
With DK’s “SEVENTEEN Carat! Be the Sun”, the boy group made everyone dance and sing along to “_World”, the title track of their latest album, Sector 17.

SEVENTEEN’s Darl+ing Manila
Waiting for the encore performances also got fun with funny and adorable banners and photos for and of the members that the fans prepared. And everything got more fun as the members emerged from all over the stage for their encore performances, starting with the sweet “Darl+ing”. With hands up in the air, Filipino Carats gamely sang along —never beating the “Because Manila Carats can sing along to any song, right?” allegations.
The sweetest went overloaded with the members’ declarations of “my darling manila”, “Carats are our darling”, and more. The boys also made sure that their Filipino Carats know they are appreciated and loved.
“Because of your energy, I was able to do well. Every time we come here, we get good energy from you. I want to come here as soon as possible again,” Jeonghan said. Other members also reiterated the boy group’s desire to come back to the Philippines for another concert soon. “We will be back as soon as possible. Hopefully, in a stadium,” Joshua said.
S.Coups added, “We will come back really fast.” Meanwhile, Hoshi also said, “Should I come to Manila again? Should we go to a stadium next?”. The8 and DK echoed the other members’ words and asked Carats to be healthy and happy. Woozi chimed in, relaying his message in Filipino, “Magkita tayo ulit. Babalik kami ulit. Mahal ko kayo.”

Always an Aju Nice show with SEVENTEEN
And with all smiles and cheerful energy, SEVENTEEN had fun on stage and with their Carats while singing and dancing to “Our Dawn is Hotter than Day” and “Snap Shoot”. Very special guests in the person of Dino’s father and grandmother made a special appearance during “Snap Shoot”, making the night extra special and giving fans one of the best concert memories. The ever-jolly and super-enthusiastic mother-and-son tandem gave their all in dancing to “Snap Shoot”, earning loud cheers from both SEVENTEEN and Carats.
But a SEVENTEEN concert will never be complete without the ever-iconic and legendary “Aju Nice”. Seemingly tireless from the more than two-hour concert, the boys and Filipino Carats sang loudly and jumped high, capping off the night with an Aju-Nice party like no other.
