Selena Marie will showcase her musical talents at Six Doors 3D BBQ Buffet in BGC Uptown Mall on March 2, 16, and 30. The show starts at 7pm.
Dubbed as the Ukulele Girl, Selena emerged into the limelight when she sang Can’t Help Falling in Love while playing the ukulele during the blind audition of The Voice Teens Philippines. Now, she has thousands of subscribers on her YouTube channel and commands large followings on Facebook and Instagram.
Selena loves composing her own songs. “I don’t have any specific ritual but I only write my songs when my emotions are at its peak. I also make sure that my mind is clear from any other thoughts because I like a peaceful atmosphere when I compose. It’s mostly just me, a pen and notebook, and either my guitar or ukulele.”
Selena admires Yeng Constantino, Sarah Geronimo, Moira dela Torre, Kyla, Juris, Sitti Navarro, and KZ Tandingan. “I love foreign artists as well but I guess I’m really a sucker for OPM songs.”
The future looks bright for the young online star who recently signed a recording contract with PolyEast Records.
“As an artist, I’m looking forward to bigger things to happen, especially when it comes to my original compositions. Aside from inspiring other people and touching hearts with my music, I want to have that one song that will be in the hearts of Filipinos for decades. I want to write more songs that people can relate to in their everyday lives.”
Joining Selena onstage at Six Doors is Mac Murillo who is part of the digital team of AAAI. Mac has had stints as an acoustic singer before working with AAAI, and staged regular gigs at The 70s Bistro and 12 Monkeys. He is also an active YouTuber.
