MANILA, Philippines — Local rock band the Itchyworms is gearing up for its first set of concerts in Canada, which will serve as a reunion and a farewell to some band members.

The "Akin Ka Na Lang Canada" tour this November will stop in the Canadian cities of Vancouver, Calgary, Winnipeg, and Toronto.

In Vancouver, the Itchyworms will reunite with original guitarist Chino Singson who migrated to Canada in 2022, marking his hiatus from the band.

Singson last toured with the Itchyworms when the band visited the United States last March 2023 and now he's set to join them when the tour begins in Vancouver on November 1.
