<p>After much anticipation, the <a href="~/"><u><strong>Wanderland</strong></u></a> Neighborhood is finally complete.</p><p>After the announcement of the first wave of musical artists such as <a href="~/"><u><strong>Jack Johnson</strong></u></a>, <a href="~/"><u><strong>Parcels</strong></u></a>, and <a href="~/"><u><strong>Novo Amor</strong></u></a>, here’s what to look forward to from their final lineup...</p><p>Set to get you grooving your shoes off, <a href="~/"><u><strong>Wanderland</strong></u></a> presents the main act for <strong>March 10, 2024</strong>: The legendary <a href="~/"><u><strong>Thundercat</strong></u></a>!</p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ormQQG2UhtQ?si=AyvuJ4fkptQX2Qzr" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><p>Virtuoso bassist and singer <strong>Stephen Burner</strong> (the genius behind <a href="~/"><u><strong>Thundercat</strong></u></a>) lets his discography speak for itself. The two-time <strong>Grammy</strong> winner is known for his jazz and R&amp;B fusions, creating a mixture of sounds that transcends musical norms. His influence has seeped through many of the most-influential media figures in the world, the most notable of this is his contribution to fellow music legend <a href="~/"><u><strong>Kendrick Lamar</strong></u></a>’s highly-praised album <a href="~/"><u><em><strong>To Pimp a Butterfly</strong></em></u></a>. Moreover, most prominent in his body of work is his ability to command the crowd using his trustee bass and soulful panache. </p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/drV0QatqbRU?si=MgKH8xbe9NORF3fT" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><p>You might usually see them in groups, but they shine just as bright when they perform on their own at the <strong>Wanderland</strong> stage. </p><p>Known in the scene as <a href="~/"><u><strong>Maroon 5</strong></u></a>’s keyboardist, New Orleans-native<strong> <a href="~/"><u>PJ Morton</u></a> </strong>is bringing the best of his funky timbres as an additional jazz boost to the live music atmosphere at <strong>Wanderland</strong>. Similar to <strong>Thundercat</strong>, the American multi-talented musician has been recognized by the most prestigious award-giving body in music; four wins and 20 nominations to put a number on it. And as if Wanderland is not clear enough in proving that they are bringing nothing but the best, South Korean artist <a href="~/"><u><strong>HWASA</strong></u></a>, a prominent member of one of the most distinct K-pop groups to date (<a href="~/"><u><strong>MAMAMOO</strong></u></a>), is providing the Filipino crowd her signature upbeat and stage presence as she dazzles her way back to the country as a solo performer. Similar to what her girl group is known for, HWASA will fiercely take on the Wanderland stage through performing her hits such as ‘<a href="~/"><u><strong>&quot;Maria&quot;</strong></u></a>, <a href="~/">&quot;<u><strong>I’m a B&quot;</strong></u></a>, and <a href="~/"><u><strong>&quot;Chili&quot;</strong></u></a>—all known to be semi-autobiographical songs that speaks of her bravery in countering society’s toxic traditions, specifically towards women.  </p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/2F9pL06IC8k?si=NPK0NeNEzPK6QixS" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/brZRDjFIFJs?si=AVYONu1DN2V_a89j" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><p>A music project by French DJ <strong>Thiabut Berland</strong> and vocalist <strong>Irfane</strong>, <a href="~/"><u><strong>Breakbot</strong></u></a> carries an ultra-stylish sound reminiscent of the local house party scene in France. They are best known for blending sleazy disco beats with modern electronica synths that could instantly transform a normal crowd of music lovers to a raging dancefloor.</p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/6okxuiiHx2w?si=VWUAMNGj5G1KwlwX" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><p><strong><a href="~/"><u>The Walters</u></a> </strong>is a crowd-favorite for sure. Hailing from the vibrant city of Chicago, Illinois, this band’s rise to fame was their hit song<a href="~/"><u><strong> &quot;I Love You So’&quot;</strong></u></a> that sweeped the soundscapes of <strong>TikTok</strong> with 10 billion views to be exact. This also caused them to gain a cult-following of indie music lovers who fell in love with their surf-pop sound akin to the 60’s boy group <strong>Beach Boys</strong>, with a dash of dream-pop blues that caters to the taste of the younger generation.</p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/HZX7MB_m13M?si=6SVGDxOHGs6L65Xh" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><p><a href="~/"><u><strong>Cosmo’s Midnight</strong></u></a>’s style is a particularly catchy one. Besides being two twin brothers from down under making music, <strong>Cosmo</strong> and <strong>Patrick Liney</strong>’s approach in conquering their space in the music scene is by generating bright rhythms with soft funky sounds. It’s EDM laced with a bit of pop, something we all know everyone will dig.</p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/tWHCdD3UZ4s?si=OXtbc_if__EdUUw2" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><p>Meanwhile, Busan-based indie rock stars <strong><a href="~/"><u>Bosudongcooler</u></a> </strong>speak their daily life stories through their soft-paced songs that carry a message every human has felt. And just like their hometown, their music has this power to touch the soul like sea waves ebbing and flowing on sandy shores.</p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/MK_Su-gQ7SQ?si=dcj24J_SIZzj-H99" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><p>True to what <strong>Wanderland </strong>is known for, there is always a place for homegrown acts to flaunt<br/>their talent at a globally-acclaimed stage. Big or small, new and old–Wanderland made sure that they have with them a rocking local lineup that encapsulates warmth only the feeling of home can emit.</p><p>What if I told you that…<a href="~/"><u><strong>Lola Amour</strong></u></a> is coming back home. Hailing from Muntinlupa, this dynamic band with an almost rockstar status in the country is making their way back to the <strong>Wanderland</strong> stage. Fun fact, these very talented musicians have made their mark in Wanderland’s history by being the reigning champion of <strong>Wanderbattle 2017</strong>, which boosted them to perform their own homespun yet passionately-crafted songs at the Wanderland stage. After their explosive jumpstart, it’s all up and up from there.</p><p>It’s been years but <strong>Wanderland</strong> welcomes <a href="~/"><u><strong>Lola Amour</strong></u></a> with open arms as they perform their crowd-favorite songs like <a href="~/"><u><strong>&quot;Fallen&quot;</strong></u></a>, <a href="~/"><u><strong>&quot;Pwede ba&quot;</strong></u></a>, and of course, <a href="~/"><u><strong>&quot;Raining in Manila&quot;</strong></u></a> to wanderers who have witnessed their triumphs throughout the years.</p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/7BVHMlFKbf4?si=np4Z2eCi2Pt8Hd0N" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><p>Additionally,<strong> <a href="~/"><u>GABBA</u></a> </strong>is also making his way back to <strong>Wanderland</strong> to set the mood with his awe-striking groove. Since his <strong>Wanderland</strong> debut in 2017 as a member of both <a href="~/"><u><strong>Tom&#x27;s Story</strong></u></a> and <a href="~/"><u><strong>Fools and Foes</strong></u></a>, GABBA is still producing music that has the ability to detail complex emotions through his impeccable instrumental capacities. Lastly, Wanderland slates rising jazz singer <strong><a href="~/"><u>Jose Miguel</u></a> </strong>to enchant the crowd with his old-soul jiving and ragtime swinging tunes, ready to momentarily transport Wanderland to yesteryear’s bests. </p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/cwDYRXDoW20?si=4L3BjEa2196p7ZdG" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/vBaLdkd7x-o?si=2EP9QOebxey_la8a" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><p><a href="~/"><u><strong>Lola Amour</strong></u></a>, <a href="~/"><u><strong>GABBA</strong></u></a>, and <a href="~/"><u><strong>Jose Miguel</strong></u></a> will be joining previously announced homegrown acts <a href="~/"><u><strong>ena mori</strong></u></a>, <a href="~/"><u><strong>DWTA</strong></u></a>, <a href="~/"><u><strong>Paolo Sandejas</strong></u></a>, <a href="~/"><u><strong>bird.</strong></u></a>, and <a href="~/"><u><strong>Party Pace</strong></u></a>.</p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/4KXI9yYKex0?si=HFKi2iQvV4zwei4U" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8gfPuBLik88?si=RSTywzzi8frWwZG2" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8gfPuBLik88?si=RSTywzzi8frWwZG2" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><p>With <strong>Wanderland</strong>’s continuous pursuit of making a festival that is visually as vibrant as the community it amassed, this year’s list of creative artists—all well-established in the local art scene—are going to populate the grounds to create their pieces to life one paint stroke and art build at a time. They have <strong>TRNZ </strong>who will make space through his evocative installation art, while <strong>BITTO</strong>, <strong>Seeweirdo</strong>,<strong> Valvee</strong>, and<strong> Babsilog </strong>will be the muralists who will be painting the walls of Wanderland to match its sprightly accompanying music all around.</p><p><strong>Wanderland Neighborhood: </strong>Home of good music and good people.</p><p><strong>March 9 &amp; 10, 2024<br/>Filinvest City Events Grounds</strong>, Alabang, Muntinlupa, Philippines<br/><strong>#WanderlandMusicFest</strong></p><p>A Festival By <a href="~/"><u><strong>Karpos Multimedia</strong></u></a><br/>Co-Presented by: <strong>Philippine Airlines</strong> and <strong>Grab</strong><br/>Official Beer: <strong>San Miguel Pale Pilsen</strong> and <strong>San Miguel Flavored Beer</strong><br/>Official Whisky: <strong>Johnnie Walker</strong> <br/>Official Ticketing: <strong>Tickelo</strong></p><div><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/seZMOTGCDag?si=Sb7dz-fOICLbtmyN" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></div><div> </div>
