K.A. Antonio’s Driven, bumida sa Pinas FM 95.5

Mula sa pagiging bokalista ng bandang AJKA, ngayon ay gumagawa na siya ng pangalan bilang isang solo artist. Walang iba, kundi ang mang-aawit ng ngayo’y patok na patok na Siopao na Pag-ibig tara, at maki-jam na sa tugtugan ni K.A. Antonio.

  Halaw sa mga tugtugin ng Imago at ni Barbie Almalbis ang musikang ginagalawan ni K.A. Hindi rin kataka-taka dahil na rin sa banda nitong AJKA na may Pop at Rock music identity.

Sa kaniyang album naman na pinamagatang Driven, ang mga kantang nakapaloob dito ay sumasalamin sa stages ng pag-ibig. Kung sa “Papansin” ay patungkol ito sa tweetums stage ng isang relasyon; ang “Siopao na Pag-ibig” ay para naman sa mga umasa at nabigo lang rin sa huli; at ang “Beep” kung saan ito ang pinakamatamis na yugto ng isang relasyon. Syempre, hindi makukumpleto ang listahan kung mawawalan ng theme song ang mga kaibigan nating sawing sawi sa pag-ibig “Maybe” ang nararapat sa inyong kanta.

  Kung kaniyang personal na buhay naman ang pag-uusapan, aniya siya ay masayang masaya sapagkat kahit siya ay nagsisimula na sa panibagong yugto ng kaniyang buhay, ang buhay may-asawa, ay patuloy pa rin niyang nagagawa ang mga  bagay na kaniyang gusto partikular na sa kaniyang buhay mang-aawit.

  Sa ngayon ay asahan rin si K.A. na masilayan sa iba’t-ibang events bilang isang host.

Patuloy naman ng mga gigs at shows ni K.A. Nominado rin ang kaniyang Siopao na Pag-ibig bilang Best Novelty Song sa Awit Awards.

Patuloy na kumonekta at makibalita kay K.A. Antonio sa kaniyang social media accounts:

#31 ACCEPT AN INVITATION TO GUEST IN A MUSIC TALK SHOW

The invitation came in via a private message over Facebook. Apparently someone from ZOE TV, an affiliate of GMA Network, had come to know of my music and felt I’d make a worthy guest for the station’s show, THIS IS MY STORY, THIS IS MY SONG (T.I.M.S.).

I was naturally surprised, but immensely flattered. T.I.M.S., hosted by multi-awarded songwriter and a personal idol, Jungee Marcelo, had a strong following among local music enthusiasts; that I would even be considered was an honor, especially since my work has been under the music radar for so long.

Thankfully, Jungee is such an affable and humble man (despite his stature in the industry), and our conversation on set became a relaxed reminiscing of sorts. He made me recount my personal musical journey, allowing me to enumerate my many influences and to narrate the experiences that have led me to pursue writing inspirational music. 

Jungee himself is known for his deeply-inspired and Christ-centric songs. So the daunting part of the interview was having to play my own work before him. Apparently, the producers had intentionally left me clueless about this section of the show to keep our conversation spontaneous and real.

I was then asked to showcase one of my songs (I was briefed on this), and so on hand to sing ANG PUPUNO SA AKIN were dear friends Carlo Santos and Michelle Ching.

The T.I.M.S. episode also featured the young and uber talented K.A. Antonio, who also related her story and showcased her music. The final section of the episode (and a totally frightening one because, once again, we were not briefed on this) was a challenge to collaborate on a song written with words randomly pulled out from a book. We survived. Praise God.

A splendid experience, this was. I’d do it again in a heartbeat. Thanks, Jungee, and the producers of T.I.M.S. And here’s a link to that episode: T.I.M.S. K.A. Antonio & Norman Agatep
