Defining the News
Nine-piece band Ben&Ben rose to fame with their heartfelt songs tackling many topics like love, loss and even societal issuesFolk-pop band Ben&Ben remained unbothered by new and upcoming Filipino artists making their way to the local music scene.
Miguel added how young artists would ask for their advice and how they would genuinely share what they had learned during the time when they were just starting to build their own name in the OPM music scene. “It’s like there’s something for everyone. If you like to P-pop, there’s P-pop. If you’re more into bands, there’s a lot. If you want upbeat songs, there’s also a lot. And if you want to listen to mellow music, you can. It feels so good. Because, I think, ultimately, it feels good to be a listener because there’s really a lot of choices,” he explained.
Andrew, handling percussion and backing vocals, highlighted the growing appreciation for local music among Filipinos today.“Ultimately, we throw it back to the listeners. Because there’s no artist if there’s no listener. And no one will thrive to different sounds if there are no people who are open to trying new sounds. That’s why, aside from the music scene in terms of the artists, there is a big change in terms of listeners,” continued Miguel.
