GenSan celebrates Independence Day with Katribu Music Festival

GENSAN'S HOMEGROWN bands and local artists gathered on the night of the 115th anniversary of Philippine Independence at the Robinson's Place Gensan parking lot for the Katribu Music Festival.

Bands of all genre and other music performers gave it their all in a musical event organized by Musikalilangan, Inc. and sponsored by Robinson's Place GenSan and SocSarGen News FM.

Over 20 performers graced the Katribu Music Festival stage and the standout performances -- according to me -- during the night are from the bands Talking About Jane, 11th Floor, and that of GenSan's pride, beatbox artist Harold Jomar Gesulga, who has once wowed the Pilipinas Got Talent judges and audience.

Here's a video I took of Harold's performance:

Talented Beatboxer from GenSan

He performed Psy's Gangnam Style and Gentleman. He ended his performance by playing the harmonica and mixed it with sound produced by his mouth.

There are just so many great talents in GenSan and nearby places. The bands performed their own songs and I could say that those songs can become big hits, too. I wish local artists can get the kind of exposure they deserve.

I look forward to a bigger Katribu Music Festival in GenSan next year.
