MANILA, Philippines - Boyce Avenue is returning to Manila after a year for a headline tour that will open with a major concert on Feb. 16 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum in Cubao, Quezon City.
To be mounted by Ovation Productions, the five-city concert series billed as Boyce Avenue Philippine Tour 2016 also includes stops at Waterfront Hotel & Casino Cebu on Feb. 18; Limketkai Mall Cagayan de Oro City, Feb. 19; St. La Salle Coliseum Bacolod City, Feb. 20; and University of Baguio, Feb. 22.
To be featured as special guests at the Big Dome concert are American singer, songwriter-musician Savannah Outen and the fast-rising Australian band, At Sunset, both of which enjoy a huge following on YouTube.
The tour, which is part of Boyce Avenue’s ongoing Be Somebody world tour, comes one year after its last performances before thousands of fans at the Big Dome and at the SMX Convention Center in Davao City.
Composed of Puerto Rican-American brothers Alejandro Manzano (lead vocals, guitar, piano); Fabian Manzano (guitar, vocals); and Daniel Manzano (bass, percussion, vocals), Boyce Avenue gained attention for its distinct vocal mastery and instrumental wizardry that it developed during its early years and which served it well in creating original music and performing local shows.
Boyce Avenue is also known for its killer covers for hits of other big-name music stars, such as Ed Sheeran, Wiz Khalifa, Ellie Goulding, Sam Smith and Bruno Mars, among many others..
The band was recently named by Spotify as the No. 1 most streamed international artist in the country and its 2016 Philippine Tour has long been awaited with much excitement and enthusiasm by its multitude of Filipino fans.
