Upcoming Events: Neon Fest: Get to know the Headlining Bands

Now that you guys already know our 10 Indie bands performing for Neon Fest (in case you still don't you can check out the blog post here) it's time to get to know the 6 headlining bands performing! 

Mad Hatter Day 

I have nothing but love for Mad Hatter Day who have gone from your regular College band to opening acts for Bazooka Rocks II. As I mentioned in our review of their EP - Alice in Distress, their sound is fresh and unique and you can hear the hints and influences of metal and you can hear good old glam rock in their music. 

To get a feel of their sound, check out my favorite track off their EP - Finding Atlantis below. 

They also have a new song coming out, Resistance which they will be launching on September 28.

Jensen Tenoso

An award winning singer in her own right, Jensen Tenoso already has a slew of awards and accomplishments at her young age even being part of the top five of GMA 7's PROTEGE in 2011. 

Check out her stint in Protege and rendition of Footprints in the Sand by Leona Lewis in the video below.

Midnight Meetings 

Another band, who we have been following is Midnight Meetings their unique take on blues and jazz is something refreshing and sets them apart from other bands. 

You can check out my EP Review for their acoustic EP 'Pwede Ba?' here.

She's Only Sixteen 

According to their Facebook page, She's only Sixteen is just four guys, making music and having fun. They keep it clean in their music, which is evident in their very smart and hilarious video AMYGDALA below and yes that is Midnight Meetings' Ashley Gosiengfiao in the video. 

Its worth mentioning that the band was also part of The Wanderland roster. :)

Autotelic

Cyrus Fernandez of DIG Radio and Pinoy Turner says of the group: 'It'd be really nice to keep tabs on this dance rock/electronica/pop rock band because they've got something good going on. Watching these boys in action is, shall I say a hoot and a half.'  

You can watch a live video of their song Misteryoso below.

Taken By Cars  

Rounding up the roster of bands performing for Neon Fest is Taken By Cars who was the first Pinoy band to perform in SXSW (South by Southwest, a music festival held in Texas usually around March every year), they also recently opened for The XX when they had their recent concert in Manila. 

Describing their music as 'infectious and dance-friendly brand of intelligent and meticulously-crafted brand of indie rock' it is only fitting that they headline Neon Fest. 

Check out the video of their song Identified below.
