Their previous tour Rated Gigi: World Tour, which was directed by Marvin Caldito of Stagenova Entertainment Production, also had a Canadian leg, with sold-out shows in Winnipeg, Toronto, Vancouver and Calgary. For the Australian leg, the band rocked out Sydney, Perth, Melbourne and Brisbane to fully packed crowds.

The Gigi Vibes Band consists of Gigi De Lana (vocalist), Jon Cruz (musical director/keyboardist), Oyus Traquena (guitarist), Jake Manalo (bassist), and Romeo Marquez (drummer).

Gigi De Lana and the Gigi Vibes Band first caught the public’s attention when their rendition of Roselle Nava’s “Bakit Nga Ba Mahal Kita” went viral online during the pandemic. Their covers of “Through the Fire,” “Saving All My Love for You,” “If Ever You’re in My Arms Again,” and more drew in more listeners and gave the group a solid fanbase all over the world.

Since then, Gigi and the Gigi Vibes Band have staged shows in various venues in the metro, provinces, and other countries where they have consistently played to sold-out crowds.

In 2021, Gigi made her acting debut in the series Hello, Heart, starring opposite leading man Gerald Anderson.
