Ben&Ben drops envelope-pushing single “Could Be Something,” announces international tour

Tweet

After drawing more than 60 thousand fans for their homecoming concert last year and gaining accolades for their performance at Hong Kong’s Clockenflap Music & Arts Festival 2023, Filipino nine-piece collective Ben&Ben marks the introduction of a new era with the release of “Could Be Something” on June 30, Friday at midnight.

-----------------------------------

The Filipino band is also set to debut the electronic-leaning

track live in their upcoming 5-city international tour

-----------------------------------

Signaling a new chapter of musical growth and evolution, Ben&Ben’s first single of 2023 is a big step forward. This time, the multi-awarded band infuses their guitar-driven folk/pop-rock roots with city pop elements, tropicalia beats, and twinkling production touches, for a more electronic-leaning track. Together with co-producers timothy Run and Sam Marquez, they collectively brought a new dimension to Ben&Ben’s sound. “We wanted the instrumentation and production to capture a more mature kind of hope, so we used slightly darker chords, coupled with tight rhythms, to bring out a unique kind of catharsis for the listener, for our Liwanag,” Ben&Ben explains in a collective statement. “Together with our co-producers, we built the soundscapes to reflect a lush, yet tighter than ever sound for the band.”

According to the Pagtingin hitmakers, “Could Be Something” delves into the often-overlooked phase before taking a leap of faith. It candidly addresses moments of overthinking and overprocessing, providing a relatable narrative for all.

“Could Be Something is a song about turning doubt into belief,” Ben&Ben shares. “It’s the revival of hope after being caught in a very cynical place. It’s the feeling you get after meeting someone who unexplainably makes you believe in love again, or finding a new passion that sparks life in you.”

The nine-piece act reveals that, beyond being a love song, their new single doubles as an anthem for people grappling with doubt. “It offers a reminder to believe, surrender, and let go during challenging times,” the acclaimed Filipino group adds.

The band worked together with Ben&Ben Music Production, the management team behind the band’s entire operations, music production and marketing efforts, to embark on this new journey. Since the pandemic, the band has been self-managed by a tightly knit, yet efficient team of people that the band believes in, and trusts wholeheartedly.

International Tour

Ben&Ben plans to debut a live performance of “Could Be Something” in the coming months, as they headline their nationwide tour in key cities across the country. Additionally, for the first time ever, they will be taking the song to an international audience with an international tour that kicks off in London, followed by Los Angeles, Toronto, Sydney, and Dubai. This is in collaboration with ABS- CBN Global and 1MX Music Festival. More details will be revealed in the coming weeks via their social media accounts and official website.

Ben&Ben’s “Could Be Something” is the first song to be will be out on all digital music platforms worldwide via Sony Music Entertainment on June 30, 2023.

#MangInasalFamilyFiesta TikTok Challenge wins Gold at Asia-Pacific Stevie® Awards

Tweet

Mang Inasal, the country’s Grill Expert, has won a Gold Stevie® Award for its #MangInasalFamilyFiesta TikTok Challenge in the 2023 Asia-Pacific Stevie® Awards.

The recognition was given under the "Innovation in the Use of Viral Media or Word of Mouth" category. Over 800 nominations were considered in various categories for this year's Stevie Awards, and the winners were determined by more than 100 judges worldwide.

Veering away from traditional advertising and paid media, Mang Inasal capitalized on viral marketing with the use of TikTok and user-generated content to raise awareness, conversations, and sales from netizens on the newly launched Family Fiesta -- a special bundle of char-grilled favorites that’s perfect for office parties, family reunions, and various gatherings.

From October 20 to November 30, 2022, netizens were enticed to order the Family Fiesta, take fun consumption videos with their family or friends, and post their videos on TikTok.

The challenge generated over 30 million TikTok views within the campaign period, or 321% higher than the target. It was so successful that fun Family Fiesta videos continued to be posted in the platform even after the campaign, which helped promote the product and make it part of netizens’ holiday celebrations. Further, the #MangInasalFamilyFiesta TikTok Challenge translated to actual sales as it helped the brand consistently exceed targets over a three-month period.

“The #MangInasalFamilyFiesta TikTok Challenge was an exciting new way for us to launch a new product and it was surely worth it,” Mang Inasal business unit head Mike V. Castro. “Through their videos, we’ve seen how our customers enjoyed Family Fiesta in different ways, whether with their families, friends, and workmates. We are so happy that this campaign united the Mang Inasal community on TikTok.”

The Gold Stevie® Award is the latest in a string of recognitions gained by Mang Inasal for its impactful digital marketing communication initiatives. Last March, the brand bagged a Silver Anvil Award from the Public Relations Society of the Philippines for its 2022 #MomsRuleAtMangInasal Digital Marketing and Public Relations campaign. Mang Inasal was also honored by the Marketing Excellence Awards-Philippines with a Silver Award under the Excellence in Viral Marketing category for its “16 Cups Challenge,” a March 2022 initiative that happened after SB19 member, Stell mentioned his 16 cups of rice ‘record’ in Mang Inasal. It became a three-day trending topic on Twitter, evolving later into a nationwide challenge.

“I know how challenging it is for everyone to eat healthy because of many reasons. I always get so busy with my schedule and work. That is why having easy-to-make meals with Century Tuna has been the best option for me. I can simply make a quick post-gym snack, or come-up with a hearty meal for lunch or dinner,” shared Pia Wurtzbach.

Aside from maintaining her health, Pia has also prioritized her quality time with loved ones before she embarked on her new journey as a newlywed wife to her partner Jeremy Jauncey. She has always been family-centered. She treasures being a doting aunt to her niece Lara and nephew Logan and when she’s not training for a marathon, Pia always makes it a point to make the most out of her free time by bonding with her family.
