Do you mourn the passing of the Beatles? Did you ever get the chance to see the Beach Boys live? Do you yearn to see the music of the Swinging Sixties played by a vibrant, fun-loving and highly professional band?

 

Then you’ve come to the right place!

 

Welcome to the Philippines’ Premier Rock’n’Roll Vocal Harmony Band!

 

The Band of Brothers are a four-piece Filipino band specializing in oldies, especially the music of the 50s, 60s and 70s. Consisting of brothers and their cousin, Pepe plays guitars, JC plays keyboards, JJ plays bass, and their cousin, Niel plays drums. Being great fans of Vocal Harmony, they managed to combine all their four voices to create a fresh blend that captures the hearts of their audiences.

 

Formed in 2010 with 3 brothers and a cousin, they cut their teeth on the competitive Manila club circuit before being invited to the United States to play for American-Filipino Independence celebrations.

 

How come they’re so popular? Sure, they play oldies … but they play them like they’re this week’s hits! They’re young, fun and immensely talented musically.

 

Wanna hear the hits of the Beatles. The Beach Boys and Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons the way they were performed back in the ‘60s?

 

Come along and see, hear and LOVE the Band of Brothers …
