Former Himig Handog finalist in an emotional new ode
After being a finalist in HIMIG 11th edition, OPM band Kiss N Tell is ready to broaden its horizon by releasing its sophomore single “Lundag” under ABS-CBN’s rock and alternative label DNA Music.
“Lundag” is an emotional ode of someone who professes unconditional love to a special person even at the expense of suffering pain and without the security of being loved in return.
Kiss N Tell says the track verbalizes the sentiments of a ‘rebound’ in relationships. “Even just as a rebound or a wall to lean on, the person doesn't even bother thinking about the chance of being loved back, so long as the beloved is relieved of pain and suffering.”
“Lundag” was composed by band members Joshua Ortiz (rhythm guitar) and Aniceto Cabahug III (lead guitar) under the production of Gracenote’s Eunice Jorge and Velvet Playground.
Kiss N Tell is an alternative pop rock band formed in early 2019 who competed as one of the 12 finalists in ABS-CBN’s HIMIG 11th edition songwriting competition with its own composition “Pahina.”
Aside from Joshua and Aniceto, current members of the band include Lennix Purificacion (lead vocals), Arjumar Arbotante (bass guitar), Ronnel Navarro (keys), and Ernie Bañares (drums).
After their HIMIG stint where they showcased their complex yet sophisticated songwriting, the band members officially signed under DNA Music, an ABS-CBN Music record label that aims to uplift the local bands’ industry and help rock, alternative, and reggae artists shine.
