The Naïve New Beaters

According to the press release, The Naïve New Beaters also known as NNBS is composed of David Boring, Martin Luther BB King, and Eurobelix, whose differences in background and influence result in a savage kind of exotic music with touches of rock, electronica and hip hop. In 2004, they released their debut album Wallace which they promoted by touring famous festivals around Europe, in cooperation with Nokia. Eight years later, NNBS reinforced their electro-pop-rock-cheerful sound with a second album, La Onda. In 2013, they share their natural energy and bring their odd and crazy but stimulating sound to Southeast Asia with a six city tour that kicks off on the Fête de la Musique stage in Manila.

Also performing at the Main Stage are a number of local acts like Bayang Barrios, Quest, Razorback, Sinosikat, Up Dharma Down just to name a few. Also slated to perform are Planet Zips, Flow Arts Philippines, Ukelele Philippines Ensemble and more. Aside from the Main Stage, there also will be eight independently produced pocket stages, each featuring a different music genre will be held in nearby establishments making it easy for people to hop from one genre/venue to another throughout this evening. And just like the main stage, admission to the pocket stages is also free of charge.

Fête de la Musique 2013 boasts of 1 Main Stage, 8 pocket stages and over 100 acts producing over 10 hours of live music. This year's edition also celebrates the 30th Anniversary of Michael Jackson's Thriller. This music event is part of FrancoPhil, the French cultural season here in the Philippines.
