Last August 30, musicians Alex Goot and Against The Current performed live in their first ever show in Manila. The CCP Theater was jam-packed and most were wearing merchandise or customized shirts to show their full support for these 2 YouTube stars.

A little fact about their front act Ms. Monique Lualhati. She auditioned individually in the The X-Factor Philippines (2012) and later became part of the girl group A.K.A. Jam. Monique never had a hard time holding our attention because of her beautiful voice resonating like the queen of R&B, Soul Princess and country’s most awarded singer Kyla. She graced us with her rendition of songs from Beyonce, Fantasia Barino, Jessie J, Bruno Mars and my personal favorite was her version of “Clarity” by Zedd.

Against The Current – If you love watching indie YouTube artists, you’re definitely not a stranger to their music where their videos of covers of hit songs and originals have reached millions of views and became viral in social media. The moment when ATC took the stage, the crowd cheered for them! Most of the fans, especially guys were screaming, “I love you Chrissy!”. She was the center of attention and certainly carried out her main vocalist duties. The sweet-looking singer reached out to their fans as she went left and right the stage to get closer to the crowd. The band performed their hits “Closer, Faster”, “Something You Need” and covers of hits like Paramore’s “Ain’t It Fun”.
