Yahoo Philippines introduced the final roster of 12 “Breakthrough Acts” who came from the three cities of Cebu, Davao and Metro Manila.
Yahoo! Philippines launched an advocacy concert that will promote “Original Pilipino Music” (OPM) called Y! Rocks last December 8, 2011 at Mall of Asia Concert Ground that showcased the talents of up-and-coming artists as well as mainstream bands. Across the three cities of Cebu, Davao and Metro Manila, Yahoo! introduced the final roster of 12 “Breakthrough Acts” namely White Sunday, Ma. Laurice Jamero, Penguin, Stereo Deal, Stories of Now, Yield Avenue, Indios, Jeepney Joyride, Row Four, Paranoid City, FOC Fashion and Highway Drive.
Row Four from Novaliches, Yield Avenue from Laguna and Stories of Now from Makati who share the same passion in music were just among the 12 chosen breakthrough acts that performed on stage with the country’s top music icons like Urbandub, Pupil, The Dawn and Wolfgang. Fortunately, we got the chance to interview these three finalists and shared their experiences and the long journey that they went through before they became part of the 12 “Breakthrough Acts” of Yahoo! Rocks.
Kudos to Yahoo! Philippines for such a one of a kind event that will surely put OPM on top of hit charts today.
