KEY POINTS
  • Hiyaw: The Sound of Unity will feature local bands Zandata, The Weekend Project, Filosophy, ALPA, and Kaizon in a celebration of OPM (Original Pilipino Music).
  • Rockwise, the founder behind the music movement shares that the group was formed with a mission to highlight and uplift Filipino musicians by creating a platform for them to share their music with the broader community.
  • Over the years, many local musicians have struggled to find platforms to perform and showcase their talent, often facing underpayment for their work. This group seeks to change that narrative by creating new opportunities and ensuring fair compensation for artists.
