This has been a great year for Ben&Ben: A successful North American tour; landing at No. 1 on Spotify Wrapped's most streamed group on the Philippine list for the third year in a row; and performing at the Clockenflap: Hong Kong's Music & Arts Festival.
To cap 2022, the nine-member band is doing its Homecoming Concert on 18 December at the SMDC Festival Grounds.
As a gesture of gratitude, the band said in a statement: "We wanted to mount our largest show yet, with our longest set, the best of what we've made through the years.
"We are most excited to bring this show, finally, to our Liwanag… It had been a long journey with a lot of hard work.
The Homecoming Concert 2022 is about home as a place, an idea, a person of comfort, or a gesture of security and intimacy.
Housing is probably the biggest issue affecting people the world over.
Malacañang on Monday called for a more thorough investigation into the questioned flood control projects in Taguig…
The defense on Monday backed the move by senator-judges to exclude a prosecution witness who testified on the firearms…
The outdoor concert is also about coming home to each other.
"We've always likened how each piece of music we make is a little gift that our listeners have allowed into their lives, and how they have likewise felt the comfort of home through our songs, so it's in that give and take and sharing of the feeling of home that we ultimately want to highlight for this show," said the statement.
As for the set list, the band sought to combine impact, energy, emotion, and storytelling. "To do this, we imagined ourselves as audience members and tried to approximate what might feel best after a certain song, or what might be the most sensible in terms of managing energy for both them and us throughout the lengthy set. We feel the set we eventually came up with is the perfect rollercoaster — one that keeps you hooked and engaged the whole time without lingering too long on the highs or the lows."
The Homecoming Concert will also have guest performances from artists featured on their Pebble House Vol. 1 album: KZ Tandingan Zild, and Juan Karlos.
