Munimuni to mark new era with a concert at the UP Theater

Filipino indie-folk collective Munimuni is set to headline their third major concert this Saturday, July 20, 2024, at the UP Theater in Quezon City, Philippines.

ALEGORYA: A Munimuni Concert marks the band’s new era in music-making, which features new songs from the sophomore album of the same name, as well as some old favorites.

It also serves as an introduction to Munimuni’s current lineup: Adj Jiao (guitar, vocals), John Owen Castro (flute, vocals), Jolo Ferrer (bass), Josh Tumaliuan (drums), and Ben Ayes (guitar).

Mapping the band’s current musical journey on the big stage with lavish production values and conceptual storytelling, Alegorya presents Munimuni’s first full-length concert performance since 2019’s Kulayan Natin at Cine Adarna, UP Film Center.

Caleb Vargas, the indie quartet’s manager, recently expressed his excitement for Munimuni’s decision to embark on this incredible feat. “I have always been proud of these guys, even before I helped as their manager,” Vargas shares. “I’ve been a fan of their deep music that speaks about the realities of life. I hope everyone can be there in the Alegorya Concert to not just hear their music, but alsoexperience it. Also watch out for upcoming activities; you might see us around the metro playing songs from the album or even talking about it.”

Aside from Munimuni, acclaimed singer-songwriters and musicians Barbie Almalbis, Clara Benin, Keiko Necesario, and Sofia Abrogar of Any Names Okay will also be on the roster of guest acts.

“For the guest artists, we chose people who the band has been friends with for a long time and are artists that we look up to in the music scene,” the experimental folk band explains. “Some of them already have collaborations with us, and some are collaborating with us for the first time. We are excited to see how they will be able to give a different color to our songs.”
