“Super great singers and performers! What a lovely Sunday night with Joey Albert songs! Plus a bonus performance from I Belong to the Zoo!”
“Great show with a storyline backdrop! A new concept for a concert and it was successful in telling a great love story! Kudos to the producer/writer/director of the show!”
These are some of the comments during the Wishfuls concert on the first day of May 2022, at the New Frontier Theater. Yes, the all-female musical talents of BMPI-Wish FM Artists successfully held its first live concert after the pandemic to the delight of their fans and followers and music lovers alike.
Wish 107.5 is currently one of the most popular FM stations in Metro Manila. Its program, WishList, which airs at 12 noon Mondays to Fridays, has DJ Dr. Clark reading letters sent by listeners.
The group, which previously won a station-sponsored contest, Wishcovery, had its members performing solo numbers, duets and trios, as well as collectively.
The concert’s repertoire matched the content of the letter that Dr. Clark read — about a stormy love affair: unspoken childhood love, betrayal, separation, a short-lived reunion, and death.
Dr. Clark’s WishList program is highly received, it is replayed at 10 p.m. after its lunchtime airing also on Mondays to Fridays.
KDR Music House, the station’s events arm, found the letter so interesting, it inspired the holding of the concert, Forever Will Remain.
The Wishfuls are composed of Princess Sevillena-Cabatu (Wishcovery Season 1 grand champion) Rhea Basco (Wishcovery Season 2 grand champion) Kimberly Baluzo (Rak of Aegis lead star) Louie Anne Culala (Wishcovery Season 1 2nd runner-up) Ace Bartolome (LGBT and Wishcovery Season 1 4th runner-up).
Musical Director and Arranger Adonis Tabanda and his band, 3rd Avenue, together with the amazing BMPI Dancers liven up the show.
KDR Music House is a music publishing, talent management and event production company which is home to talented singers and songwriters. KDR takes music to the world through digital platforms and social media.
