After holding a successful two-day debut concert last November, musical artist Maki gears up for another milestone in his career as he holds his first international tour with Silent Sanctuary. Starting in June, it will have them performing in six key cities across five different states in the US. Maki is also set to release his first-ever full-length album this year. “Madaming bagay ang nakaka-excite na mangyayari this year. Of course, yung darating kong album. It’s called KolorCoaster. Maraming mangyayari sa year na ito. May mga plans pa, so stay tuned. Yung US tour namin mangyayari sa June and July, so sa mga nasa US and Canada na hindi pa nakakabili ng tickets, bili na po kayo,” he shared with PUSH ABS-CBN in an exclusive interview. <div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz/music/2025/2/10/exclusive-maki-talks-about-the-most-special-love-in-his-life-1608">READ: EXCLUSIVE: Maki talks about the most special love in his life: &#x27;Lagi kaming nag-de-date!&#x27;</a></div>The 25-year-old Tarsier Records artist admitted it will also be his first time performing outside the Philippines, which will make the experience extra memorable for him. “Yes, kasama ko dito yung Silent Sanctuary band and sa Canada, si James Reid. Maraming, maraming surprises. I’m also so glad kasi I get to sing  for the Filipinos outside the country kasi nagulat din ako na ang dami din palang nakikinig sa mga kanta ko sa ibang bansa, so excited ako sa energy nila,” he said. <div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/showbiz/celebrities/2025/2/15/singer-maki-on-collecting-plushies-i-m-giving-back-to-my-inner-child-0946">READ: Singer Maki on collecting plushies: &#x27;I’m giving back to my inner child!&#x27;</a></div>In terms of working with other artists, the “Bughaw” singer admitted that he would love to someday get the chance to collaborate with the American duo Joan since they have a big influence on his brand of music. “Kasi isa sila sa pinakapaborito kong bands. Actually, underrated pa rin sila hanggang ngayon, but I would love to be part of their music journey. Marami rin silang influences sa music na ginagawa ko. It would be a dream na makaka-collab ko sila,” he added. When not busy making or performing his music, the talented musician shared that he chooses to still indulge in other forms of arts. “Siguro, kung nasa bahay ako, I’m just practicing yung mga hilig ko sa arts like painting, arts and crafts, making videos and making content. I think yun minsan yung nagiging pahinga ko aside from tulog and games,” he said.
