SCARLET ALLEY: COLLECTIVE MUSICIANSHIP

From time to time a great band is formed from a bizarre circumstance, genre, and interest. Like the saying that goes “Many are called but few are chosen” – most bands come and go or get locked up to the sound similar to their musical preference. Scarlet Alley is definitely not one of such statistics. — AND WILL NEVER BE.

Scarlet Alley is Apyong Nebrija (Percussions & Details), Dale De Paz (Percussions), Ken Alminar (Percussions, Ukelele, & Vocals), Jayford Opina (Synthesizer), Klient Duma (Drums), Iman Nicer (Bass), Christopher Nierva (Guitar), Charles Santillan (Guitar), and Jed Dycoco (Vocals, Songwriter).

KBOX TV had a good insight about Scarlet Alley at the KBOX STUDIOS recently. Klient, Apyong, Ken, Iman, Chris, Charles, and Jed performed 2 of their original songs.

Malaya – a patriotic anthem that calls for unity. It speaks of modern day bayani and the freedom within to help others.

Bakal Avenue – a metaphor on the society’s problem on illegal drugs.

Both songs are included in the first Scarlet Alley album – BUHAY, BAYAN, BABAE … BEER. The album was released in 2017 in celebration of creating music and being together as family for 10 years strong.

Scarlet Alley’s genre is a product of shared musicianship by each and every member of the band. This arrangement process generates inordinate inputs until all elements get the pulso of a particular feel.

The band’s extraordinary union is the very definition of Scarlet Alley’s music itself. Surely – there’ll be more songs to come KAY MAUYATON INI NGA BANDA PANHIMO HIN ORIHINAL NGA KANTA.
