Philippine Music- Fragile Band Profile

FRAGILE, the up and coming local band based in Dagupan City with four young and musically inclined Pangasinenses, (Immanuel Miguel Paolo Carretero (Lead Guitarist), Otilov “Tinoy” Llarenas (Bass Guitarist), Fernando “Halon” Quita (Drummer), Augusto “Atoy” Ventenilla (Lead Vocalist), hoping to catch a big break and be given an opportunity to show their talents and be a part of our music industry.

This multi-talented band loves to write and play original compositions of various genres. They always indulge and actively participating on various band gigs and competitions to showcase their talents and play their own songs. Striving hard and hoping that one day their songs are aired and appreciated. FRAGILE, a band formed from a band organization called RHYTHMOS, a band organization for music enthusiasts based at LYCEUM-NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY, Dagupan City, Pangasinan. All band members came from different bands inside the organization. At first, three of them were playing acoustic gigs on various cafes without their drummer yet and have lady vocalists. They had their first appearance playing as a complete band during the opening of one of the hotels in Manaoag, Pangasinan invited them to be one of the guest bands and were yet named twisted fate.After the gig in Manaoag, their lady vocalist desided to join another band and “Atoy” stepped-in as the new lead vocalist. The band now turned from an acoustic serenading band to a more dynamic rock and roll band and started participating on various competitions. Their first battle of the bands was during the town fiesta of San Fabian, Pangasinan.On the way to the venue, they were thinking to change their name. One of the members, the drummer specifically, noticed that all of the cases and bags of their instruments have a sticker of “fragile” and he joked to have fragile as their new name. every one just laughed but when they arrived at the venue, they haven’t thought yet of a new name so they decided to use “fragile” as their name and at the end bagged a 2^nd runner-up trophy. That was only the beginning of series of winnings from various Battle of the Bands held all over Pangasinan.

The band also played as front-acts on several gigs and major concerts with the likes of Bamboo, 6Cycleminds and others. They just recently participated to the semi-finals of the Nescafe Soundskool inter-collegiate Battle of the Bands and their lead vocalist “ATOY” managed to be one of the eleven finalists of the COLT45ROCKISTA search on MTV.

Philippine Music - New Rock Band Cicada

Sample Track: Ako ang Hari

Genre – Rock & Roll

Influences – Black Sabbath, Dream Theatre, John Lennon, Frank Zappa, Oasis, Asin, Sampaguita, Mr. Big, Steve Vai, Wolfgang, Silverchair, Razorback.

The band was formed around 1997 – 1998 during their high school days. They were composed of Jamiz Bonaobra on guitar, Joelle Abubo on drums, Cliff Tamayo on Bass and Lespaul Tamayo on vocals. It didn’t take long till Harris Loresco the shy guy from Sta. Barbara decided to join the group as the new vocalist while Lespaul turned to play the rhythm guitar.

As a struggling young group of musicians, they managed to join battle of the bands and with every opportunity that knocks in, they go for it…

After high school 2000 – 2001, the members parted ways to study in college. Some of them formed their own groups and got involved with different music events in Dagupan and as well as in Baguio. They were studying while having the chance to continue with their passion for music!

Summer of 2006 comes; Jamiz and Harris come to meet with one another at Joelle’s house. Got time to drink some brandy and with their minds lay a question. What if they formed again? What the heck!!! They called Cliff and they found themselves in their same old place, playing music and songs they’ve made… Now with Harris’ power singing, Jamiz’s guitar sweeping, Cliff’s aggressive bass playing and Joelle’s odd-time counting, there they are again doing what they love to do…

ROCK AND ROLL!!!

Anyway if you wonder what happened to the other guy Lespaul? Well, fortunately he married early, had a son and flew to the US to become a Navy… – seems like a happy ending isn’t it?
