Bryan is a singer/songwriter of Filipino descent that is known to many as the top 8 finalist on the American hit reality show “Making the Band” and as the founding member of the pop group LMNT (pronounced “element”). The group recorded a hit pop single called “Juliet” and successfully toured America with Britney Spears. After four years with LMNT, Chan was recruited by the Chippendales (#1 Male Revue in the World) in Las Vegas and has been their headline singer and emcee for the past few years.

Currently, Chan is planning on touring the Philippines with the Chippendales and would love to reach out to Filipino music fans by promoting his debut solo album “Solo Sessions.”

members:
Ezer Cruz - guitar/vocals
Jonathan Agustin - bass/vocals
Leland Antonio - drums/vocals
Adrian Perlas - guitar vocals

 

Despite being involved with their respective bands, in 2006, Adrian, Jonathan, Leland and Ezer joined forces and experimented with a distinct genre of music. Influenced by their very varied styles, the band "Cosmicrayons" evolved outside of their normal music parameters. Having experimented with rock, blues, pop and alternative in their individual band lives, the four bring together a unique sound that is all Cosmicrayons'.

Diablo Royale Rock NYC

 Rock and F*ckin Roll

 Rock N' Roll: loud, proud, and smothered in attitude…that's the jam that NYC hard rock quintet Diablo Royale kicks out. The band's lyrics cover everything from sexual innuendos to political satire, Choy explains: "We write about anything and everything, no subject is off limits for us because there is so much stuff that happens to you everyday, be it the girlfriend, the boss, parents, government or just stupid stuff like getting too drunk or having one of those horrible days at work …those are all life experiences that everyone can relate to at some point or another." 
  
Diablo Royale came together in 2005 when, guitarists Eric Choy and Gerard Steixner got together with drummer Mike Sankari to create a band that would encompass their idea of what rock n' roll should sound like. The three began writing and auditioning musicians for over a year when they finally met Adrian Barrios and bassist Jason "Sweet" Leaf through an ad posted on the internet. With the lineup complete the five hunkered down in a basement studio in Williamsburg, Brooklyn (appropriately named "The Sweatshop") and crafted their first ten songs until they were ready for wax on the self-titled debut album, released in February 2007. Taking their influences from all the best bands ranging from Aerosmith to Zep, the final result can be best described as a bombastic sonic assault on the ears that is sure to knock you into next week!
 
When it comes to being onstage, vocalist Barrios seethes with the kind of reptilian charisma that rock fans instantly find mesmerizing. Choy's guitar heroics are complimented by Steixner's stone cold consistency while the rhythm-section interplay between Leaf and Sankari is like a knockout combination from a heavyweight champ. In a short time the band has managed to cut their teeth in the local clubs of New York and as bassist Jason Leaf puts it, "We're looking to infect the masses with our brand of rock n' roll!"

Grand Fools Derby Alternative West Hollywood

Grand Fools Derby - Whisky

Grand Fools Derby, all Filipino talents brought together by their passion for music. Each one has a unique story to tell on how they came about becoming a musician. Whatever that is, it all boils down to one common denominator: music. Rex on the lead guitar has an extensive exposure to different genres, playing both guitar and bass, at one time professionally, all he wants is to bring good music to everyone. John Paul on the bass came from a family of musicians. Music has been part of his daily life since his younger years. His familiarity in playing different musical instruments has become a priceless asset to the band.  Joven on the drums has so much to share in the making of this band. His exposure to the music industry is a very good contributing factor in building up confidence and enthusiasm to all. Monty on guitars and vocals has brought so much inspiration in putting all their songs together. His zealous approach in song-making brings so much sentiment to their music. Grand Fools Derby is not your usual rock band. They are not doing this for fame. They never dreamt of becoming rock stars. All they want is to express their passion—with good music and real fun!
