Beks Battalion—composed of Chad Kinis, MC Muah, and Lassy Marquez—has evolved into more than just a comedy trio. They have become a cultural phenomenon and a powerful voice for millions of Filipinos around the world.

Through humor, authenticity, and heartfelt storytelling, the group proudly celebrates Filipino culture while creating a space where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued.

As members of the LGBTQIA+ community, Kinis, Muah, and Marquez have helped bridge the gap between the LGBTQIA+ community and mainstream society by challenging stereotypes, breaking barriers, and fostering understanding through laughter. Their performances go beyond entertainment, inspiring conversations about acceptance, diversity, and inclusion while reminding audiences that love, respect, and kindness transcend all differences.

Their genuine connection with people has earned them a loyal global following of more than a million subscribers and millions of supporters across social media. Their recent achievements—including seven sold-out shows across Canada and a sold-out concert in Manila—demonstrate how strongly their message resonates with audiences regardless of age, background, or identity.

For Filipinos living overseas, Beks Battalion represents a comforting piece of home. They celebrate the humor, resilience, and warmth that define the Filipino spirit while embracing the rich diversity of the global Filipino community. Every performance becomes a joyful reunion where laughter, shared experiences, and cultural pride bring people together.

Leader Chad Kinis said: “Lahat kami thankful sa pagmamahal at suporta na ibinigay sa amin. This did not happen overnight. We gave our blood, sweat, tears, and passion to all our shows and the platforms we have now. And we promise to continue doing our share to make people laugh, feel good, and give back to the public the love they gave us.”

As they continue their international journey, Beks Battalion remains committed to uplifting the Filipino community, championing LGBTQIA+ visibility, and proving that entertainment can unite people, build bridges, and create lasting connections across cultures and generations.

The trio is set to bring its brand of comedy to audiences around the world with shows scheduled this August in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth, Australia; a U.S. tour in September and October covering San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego, Chicago, New York, and Hawaii; and a European leg that includes Milan, Rome, Munich, Switzerland, Madrid, Barcelona, Norway, and Paris.
