A lot of things have happened to Nicole Laurel Asensio since the COVID-19 pandemic began. Almost immediately, the singer-songwriter who rose to prominence as lead singer of the all-female rock group, General Luna, became one of the most sought after artists who did not think twice about offering her talents for numerous online gigs that raised funds for the medical frontliners and families affected by the deadly coronavirus.
Since the community quarantine also known as the lockdown took effect last March, Nicole has also had one of the most eventful periods of her career, starting with a series of online performances she dubbed as Quarantunes.
She also wrote a bunch of new songs including one (“Lessons in Silence”) that she performed for BusinessMirror’s SoundStrip Live & in Quarantine just last May after which she signed a major record deal with Warner Music Philippines. Now, she has just released a brand new single called “Silong.”
In a recent interview with SoundStrip, Nicole talked about how she made the lockdown work to her advantage, how she has evolved as an artist and what the immediate future holds for her career.
1. You’ve had a very productive and eventful lockdown, what made you decide right from the start that you will devote your time to create new music and do online performances?
Keeping myself productive and constantly planning, creating and executing is probably how I’m built, the wheels in my thoughts don’t stop even when I want them to. So perhaps the primary motive to create during quarantine was for my own sanity. I simply need to be constantly crafting something.
Even at home I try to live every day to the fullest because tomorrow is not promised. The lockdown also left me more time to revisit unfinished projects that were stacking up. On the music side, I would divide my time and try to support as many online fundraisers as I could, try to accommodate whatever online corporate gigs came my way and create music content that featured musicians from all genres. These musical collaborations are on my long list of things I have always wanted to do, so I figured, why not now?
2. During the lockdown, you started your now popular Quarantunes series. Tell us more about it.
Quarantunes was started on Day 1 of the lockdown. My keyboardist Kim Lopez and I had been talking about a concept where we mash-up two different songs with the same or similar titles so we started out re-arranging the songs together over the phone. From there I kind of made a wish list of musicians I wanted to work with and songs I wanted to do. I was keeping an eye out for which artists were active online and reached out to some to collaborate, and thankfully they were willing and enthusiastic. Ira Cruz helped me with the recordings and before we knew it we were guesting more and more instrumentalists. We wrapped what we jokingly called Quarantunes Season 1 with 18 videos and will be starting a “second season” soon.
3. I heard your new song, “Silong” took a while to be completed. What happened?
To be honest, I felt like I lost my will to write for a couple years. My calendar was quite full of gigs and events. But for some reason the inspiration to write left me. Even when my father passed away, I found it difficult to put my emotions into words. To write again was something I prayed for for years. “Silong” was re-written quite a few times, and the final version ended up becoming a collaboration with Kim Lopez and Ex Madrigal Singer Itchie Montilla.
The arrangement was a group effort with the band I usually work with, Michael Alba (Drums), Karel Honasan (Bass) Nikko Rivera (Keys) Ira Cruz (Guitar) Michael Guevarra (Horn Arrangement and Sax) Lester Sorilla (trumpet) Isla Antinero (Trombone) JC Magsalin (String Arrangement) Tes Amper (Cello) Jo Bry Cimafranca (Violin) and Yosha Honasan, Pauline Lauron and my mom Iwi on backups. All these people are like musical family to me.
There wasn’t a direct plan to release this song. I had other songs in mind but I just wanted to do a piece that had everyone I love in it And from there I began writing again. I think I now have 15 songs.
4. You started your career as a rocker but your image now is that of a glamorous, sultry chanteuse. Is this the kind of career evolution that you had in mind when you started?
About 12 years ago my mom’s former manager from her early twenties, the late Ms. Roxanne Lapus once told me she envisioned me wearing gowns and singing standards, and hosting events on the side. To be honest, 12 years ago, I couldn’t see myself that way.
I was a leather boot wearing, ripped jeans rockin’, tangled hair-gypsy beads, wailing little woman. And that was all I thought I could be then. But as I got older I realized that I enjoy all kinds of music. Rock will always hold a huge chunk of space in my heart, but I have always enjoyed jazz too. My family is rooted in classical and Broadway so naturally my tastes quickly shift.
I guess corporate event clients might have seen what Ms. Roxanne saw in me back then. Because they started inquiring about me performing with big-band jazz, standards and hosting on the side. Being a self-supporting musician since age 21, I took these jobs, and found a new side of myself that I enjoyed just as much. I fell in love with big band gigs, jazz trio gigs and the like and it started to meld into my writing.
I guess my takeaway is that I don’t believe in having just one life, one colour and one flavour as an artist, and that it’s ok to genre hop. I know not everyone will agree with me there, and that is ok too but I would never allow someone to stop me in my tracks and say— you should only sing this or you should stick to this sound exclusively. I simply wouldn’t be able to live like that.
5. Many fans are still clamoring for a General Luna reunion and you and the other ladies had some recent online get-togethers that you had a lot of fun doing. In addition to considering this reunion, do you still see yourself doing rock music again?
The ladies of General Luna and I have such a rich treasure box of crazy stories and memoirs. As years went by, many things have changed, our lives, our musical landscape, our addresses. And we slowly learned to adapt to these changes as individuals and as friends.
Nowadays, we keep in touch through a Facebook thread where we check on each other and keep each other posted. Once in a while we do catch up sessions on streaming apps like Kumu, I’ve also been asking for an online musical reunion from them, but I think it will have to wait until that is logistically feasible. I hope it will happen soon. We don’t want to feel pressured so I guess it will happen when it is meant to, but the great thing is we’re all in touch and we will always be friends.
As for going back to rock music? Oh yes, definitely. Not tomorrow but you can count on it that I’ll be doing this again soon. My mind is already bubbling with ideas.
Nicole Laurel Asensio’s “Silong” is now available on major streaming platforms. Watch the official music video here premiering this August 29 at 8PM:
10 April 2003
i can’t play golf. i’m not rich. It is for anyone two reasons, I’m assuming, That I don’t get Johnson Hootie and the Augusta National Golf Club, If indeed Hootie speaks for enough of ANGC’s all male membership that he speaks as the bulk of. (For all we realize, maybe Hootie runs the ANGC on fear. Perhaps he has organized the groundskeepers into death squads and dissent is impossible. Is he re elected to regardless of the post he holds by 100 per cent margins on single name ballots? No membership, No matter the CEO of what and it does not matter his net worth, Dares speak out against Johnson Hootie for fear of being been consumed, Or the head of a dead horse going online in his locker. has anyone tried dropping a JDAM across Hootie’s bow? Maybe he and the groundskeeper fayadeen will melt into the night. Just an indicator.)
appropriate now, If I received born rich, I assume that would understand the Augusta Guys’ not wanting to hang with women, There on the club. Augusta is perhaps do not take cooking of the tens of thousands golf clubhouses I’ve not been inside. It would add greatly to my know-how about why there are no Augusta Gals, Perhaps even be dissuaded from writing this, If I were given an enormous amount of money, Then allowed inside to check around.
immediately, If I were many a golfer, I would spend more time in golf clubhouses, And knows what they look like, And could extrapolate from those experiences what the inside of ANGC must be like. Or maybe that’s [url=https://www.bitchute.com/channel/moldovawomen/]moldova ladies[/url] not at all possible, Being as is it doesn’t ANGC, Home of the pros sui generis, that you understand, of the ANGC, Peopled by such terribly rich important people that even the most backbreaking extrapolation finds visualization still far beyond quotidian reach.
The last time I was in a golf club’s clubhouse was… Lemme do think here… four, Five years ago. It was not a high end golf-club, And eventhough it was private, it had bisexual, wherein I mean it had members of both genders.
at the present. As I have realized the Hootster to say, Wimmin do not suffer boiling oil and wolfbane upon coming up the front door, to ppotentiallytico, Or deck, Or what ever, connected ANGC. Many’s the round do the women play at ANGC every dad gum year, Johnson Hootie assures all mankind, the exact dames’ svelte, Smooth tootsies pressing into the green of Amen Corner and other molded sacristies, Teein’ it up as beloveds of the brotherhood or maybe as plain ol’ unaffianced guests. So the assumption is OK, Extrapolated that on one of the doors you will find there’s sign, Perhaps of a size of type no bigger than the accumulated pixels which compose this word, but still saying LADIES. And in regards to this door, Ladies are going to do what ladies do, really, carpet cleaning their cleats, sliding little knit sockie things over their woods.
So at the low end club I was in, there would be a door lettered MEN and behind it I wasn’t playing, I went in to use the toilet in this field, Set aside from any other gender and reserved for male people, have been places to do things besides clean cleats. had been sofas. You could sit there and talk [url=https://www.wattpad.com/750880735-the-ultimate-guide-to-dating-a-moldovan-woman-the]moldova women[/url] to guy, If it suited you, No girls within 30 feet. There was a billiard table. There were card tables and evidence of fraternal Crazy 8s previously being played.
So what I’m concerned about is, And if that’s Johnson Hootie the Brotherhood have their boxers bunched by Burk the Banshees from Hell, Is there by some wild chance within the moss strewn vastness of ANGC no clearly demarcated room where the guys can be alone together with each other,
Lordly, If a rather tatty, Low end private club in Edge City USA can protect its male members from incursion with a freakin’ measly sign, Surely an entity as august as Augusta can do the actual same. But i don’t know. Never been inside of of of. Maybe one of the members can tell us.
Those incredible Mansions
Magnificent mansions on exquisite estates are commonplace in life on the Main Line.
While a lot of those palatial mansions dating back to the 18th and 19th centuries have become too large to maintain as private residences, They reside a second life in a new capacity.

Tasmanian Labor flags tough road for Hodgman Government rules as year end looms
Tasmania’s Labor Opposition has ruled out supporting three key pieces of legal procedure despite its leader saying it will negotiate with the Hodgman Liberal Government.
The clock is ticking on the end of the parliamentary year and the us govenment is scrambling to pass three crucial bills.
the invoices focus on phasing out suspended sentences, Introducing mandatory sentences for assaults on off duty law enforcement officials and allowing a Government takeover of TasWater.
But the task of passing them has become far larger since the election of Jo Siejka in Pembroke boosting Labor’s numbers in the Upper House to four.
In a display to of conciliation, Labor Opposition Leader Rebecca White wrote to Premier Will Hodgman at the weekend asking for a meeting to discuss how to pass legislations through.
But on [url=https://www.wattpad.com/746576562-spanish-women-the-reason-you-have-to-travel-to]cute spanish girls[/url] Monday Labor MP Scott Bacon confirmed the opposition remained opposed to phasing out suspended sentences, imperative sentencing and the TasWater takeover.
Mr Bacon suggested Labor would instead consider components of the bills.
“They would obviously have to speak about the detail of the bill, See if there is a sensible solution and then negotiate on the solution, he said.
In an announcement, Leader of state and federal government Business Michael Ferguson said Labor was being disingenuous.
Political scientist Professor Richard Eccleston said the next few weeks were a test for the Hodgman state.
“If the legislation is knocked back by the Legislative Council it will perhaps raise questions as to whether Liberals have the ability to govern as easily as they have this term after the election if they do form government, teacher Eccleston said.
Under Tasmania’s Hare Clark course of action, House of Assembly and Legislative Council elections are not held together.
Professor Eccleston said Labor will also be pressurized in the final few sitting weeks.
“They are dealing with looking at legislation at its merit, So it will be interesting to see whether they will live up to their word over the next few weeks,
Independent MLC Mike Gaffney said the Hodgman Government needed to barter with members.
“It’s up to government entities of the day and the party of the day to put forward good candidates, And put forward good policies, And stop within the adversarial stuff,
He said the Hodgman Government had too often tried to ram through low quality legislation, because it had the numbers in the Lower House.
“Especially initially we were getting legal guidelines, That appeared to a little bit rushed and was first based [url=https://meetspanishwomen.wixsite.com/meetspanishwomen/]pretty girl in spanish[/url] on policy thoughts and we had to do a lot more work,
In a letter circulated to legal Councillors on Monday, The Leader of Government Business in the what is Council Leonie Hiscutt said:
“I take seriously the role of the Legislative Council to scrutinise legislation and if Members have suggestions to improve the effects we seek, My door might be open.

Why is it improper for an author to create a character as part of his story who belongs to some other race other than his own
What is improper is to make a character that relies on stereotyping and caricature.
approved, You can generally get away with more stereotyping the less important the smoothness is. A background character doesn’t have much development, But still you want to put an end to vulgar caricatures.
But i’ll presume we’re discussing a main character. The more different the smoothness is from yourself, The more research you want to do. You want to publish a character so believably that the reader thinks you’re writing about yourself. try to be able to climb in that character’s head and understand how he thinks.
nowadays, this won’t mean you need to discard stereotype altogether. But such depiction must be appropriate in context, And that cannot be all there is to your character.
I used to work with a black guy who loved fried chicken, melon, And grape soda, But wouldn’t admit it to white folks enhance stereotype. He was your south, And those were a few foods he grew up on. it goes without saying, He was also an electric engineer, Repaired cars together with father, Was a terrible guitar player, And adored “mother” comments. So if I was writing him as a character, can be seen there is more to him than just that stereotype.
In grime doing research, You will probably find yourself learning in essence you never expected to know, And learn to comprehend things you never payed attention to before.
In grime writing some female characters, I’ve learned how to properly fit a bra and why they are so expensive. I now extremely well what a fishtail braid is, And what smokey eyes are. I fact of the matter, I’ve developed a greater appreciation for women’s fashion in general, And can see what does and does not compliment certain features. as thinking, “goodness me, she is cute, [url=https://russianwomendate.weebly.com/]dating ukrainian women[/url] I find myself thinking the likes of “That cateye eye shadow really compliments the shape of her eyes, also “That blue lipstick helpful with her hair color and skin tone,
in writing Russian characters, (And dating european women), I’ve learned a considerable amount about Slavic culture in general, From that your “ruskies Soul” invented, To why is this Russians ask “how is X called, versus “so what is X called,
There is absolutely nothing wrong with writing a plethora of distinct people. the earlier advice, Write what realize, Is not a restriction, Its a starting position. even without the other ideas, Write what understand. But if regular people took that as an admonishment, As a limitation, We would be deprived of truly great literature.
an effective tool, In a addition to look into, Is beta readership. If you’re writing a woman the first time, Ask some women if through read your story and review it for you. If you haven’t written a Jew before, Try to get yourself a Jew to read it. But don’t have only people read it, You need lots of feedback. Just do your best to make sure some of it is from people who can tell you “absolutely, This seems [url=https://www.bitchute.com/channel/ukrainianwomen/]russian mail order brides[/url] real, and they often, You won’t be capable of geting that feedback, So do much much more research, And do your better.
And sometimes you’ll get it right by accident, Which is always neat. At a convention I was discussing a character of mine, And describing her and her upbringing, And the woman I was talking to started covering traumatic childhood related PTSD. i asked her what she meant, And she explained that it so happened that she was a psychiatrist, And that it was clear my character had PTSD, And was pleased that I didn’t know. I had simply considered, If this happened to my guy, how would she react? It was all logical reduction, And I incidentally hit the nail on the head. But that would never have happened if I hadn’t done loads of general research into human behavior beforehand.
thus, While you’ll find nothing is wrong with writing people with whom you are not familiar, I reiterate, those who. Write believable classes. if you don’t not writing other people, the problem is writing other people badly.
And do stay away from tokenism. It regularly shows. Don’t write a character who is a gay black Jew because “multiplicity, Write a gay black Jew because that’s who your aspect is. And then give him something amazing to do. supply him with a good story.
so long as you have a good story to tell, And treat your characters like a person, really should do reasonably well.
