Moonstar88 releases This Year

Moonstar88
Paolo Bernaldo, May Chelle Baay, Herbert Hernandez
and Bon Sundiang

The past few years have seen a lot of shakeups in the local band scene. But after the dust settles, there are bands who are left standing and still manage to release new material proving that they are here to stay. One such band is Moonstar88, composed of Bon Sundiang (drums), Paolo Bernaldo (bass), Herbert Hernandez (guitar) and May Chelle Baay (vocals/guitar). The band hasn’t come up with any new material since Todo Combo way back in 2007 but they did not let this year 2012 pass them by as they finally release their newest album, This Year, under Ivory Music & Video.

Led by the single Ligaw, the album also features seven other tracks including an acoustic version of Migraine and a duet version of Ligaw featuring Parokya ni Edgar’s Chito Miranda. A music video for Ligaw has also been released featuring graphics and visuals matching the album’s cover art.


This Year’s initial press will feature a pop up that will be offered for a lower price. This first press is limited only to 500 copies which are individually numbered making the CD a collector’s item as well.


Moonstar88’s This Year was one of the CD releases under Ivory Music & Video that was presented during the Astroplus Blog-Connect event.
