Outerhope’s Mike and Mick

…..

Had fun last night at Attraction! Reaction!’s Coming to America fundraising show for Outerhope. Thanks A!R!, thanks Outerhope! And thanks to Paolo, Shinji and Mariah for filling in Mount Analogue. Also, to our friends who watched and supported!

I proved last night that dreams do come true when I played the tambourine for Outerhope’s Twenty Years From Now. Ang saya kahit nasa gilid lang ako! And Mike said maganda raw! Haha.

I do hope that Outerhope will be able to raise enough funds for NYC Popfest. OPM represent!

Ladies and gents, our friends from Outerhope (Micaela and Michael Benedicto) were invited to play at one of the biggest music festivals in the world, and it’s the NYC PopFest (May 17-20).

On March 3, Attraction! Reaction! will host a fundraising show to help bring Outerhope to New York. Guest bands are Eggboy, IdKids and Mount Analogue. Let’s all be there to support them! 

Check out the FB invite for more details.

The NYC popfest is an annual 4-day long celebration of indie pop from around the world. Some of our favorite bands have played here, like The Radio Dept., The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, Go Sailor, Rose Melberg, and The Drums among others. 

I’m a huge Outerhope fan and to be able to play for their benefit is a pleasure! I know that this will be fun and I missed playing for Mount Analogue, too :) Hope to see you there!

TONIGHT: Whilst We Wait Exhibit at the Lomography Manila Headquarters! Exhibit and bazaar will start at 4pm while performances by Mount Analogue, The Strangeness, Slow Hello, Hannah+Gabi and Outerhope starts at 7.

Outerhope at Number Line Records Presents: Multo! Last Show in Manila

Tomorrow! Number Line Records Presents: Multo! Last Show in Manila

Three things:

1. Mount Analogue is playing and we’re playing a new song. (This one’s for sure now. Haha.)

2. It’s Allan’s (aka Multo) last show here in Manila until we don’t know when. It’s a party for him and we should be there!

and 3. I can’t believe I’m in a line-up with Outerhope. It’s like a dream come true! I’ve been a fan of this duo since 2005 I think! Since Strangely Paired and Terno days! Just whoa. Also, friends will be there!

So I suppose it will be a good night? Oh yes, please. The past few days were awful and all I had was James Blake to comfort me.

See you all!
