Настоящее имя: Alyssa Angeles
Об исполнителе:
Alyssa Angeles, an 18-year old International Studies major from De LaSalle University is no different. Having spent her younger years being mentored by the likes of master songwriter Ryan Cayabyab, being trained for the limelight by no less than stellar theatre group Trumpets and idolizing singing greats like Sarah Geronimo and Ariana Grande, it is little wonder that she has turned what was just a hobby into something she can invest a full-fledged career on. She also dabbled into some modelling but soon realized it was singing that she really loved to do. She knew she was a singer at the age of 7, when her mom would often ask her to sing in front of friends whenever they went out to karaoke bars. She was also a member of her school’s chorale class and has also appeared in bit parts in an indie movie and in Enteng Kabisote: Ang Agimat at Ako. She has also done radio guestings on Radyo ng Bayan and has sung on national TV via Net 25’s Letters and Music, PTV’s Good Morning Boss and live performances in GMA 7’s Maynila, as well as various mall shows and school programs, singing a mix of Ariana Grande hits and her own songs, all of which she says has helped her get used to the adoring crowds and hone her singing abilities. Which is why it comes as no surprise that she has already come up with her very first album, Alyssa: Falling In Love which is all about the trials and travails of a girl in love, something Alyssa says she isn’t yet (but we wouldn’t be surprised if that happened soon) but when you listen to the songs included, like the carrier single Lilim you wouldn’t think she hasn’t experienced being in love. While she draws her inspiration from friends’ love stories and the countless girl talks that often happen, she is aware of how beautiful and painful it is to be in love and has been able to bring that aspect of it into the songs in her album. Incidentally, the album itself is something to look forward to as it is chock-full of original songs written by Jessa Mae Gabon, Popsie Saturno-San Pedro, Garry Cruz and the master writer himself Vehnee Saturno, who wrote one of her singles, Still Crazy. In addition to her originals, she also did her own version of the Joey Albert hit, Ikaw Lang ang Mamahalin which is a song that is very fitting to her vocal range. Other songs to watch out for in her debut album include Fireflies, Crush Me and Don’t You Know, the latter two being dance tunes that serve to showcase Alyssa’s massive vocal range and talent. From karaoke bars to the world stage, Alyssa’s journey has just begun and she is talented enough to see it to the end. Alyssa: Falling In Love is distributed exclusively by Synergy Music and is available in record bars nationwide. Also, available on digital downloads and streaming at iTunes and Spotify.
