what a way to start the year

I learned from fb that Ebe will be quitting Sugarfree for still some unknown reasons. The other band members' reaction weren't sought yet but this news quite saddening. It's just a month since I've seen them played together. Ebe was thanking their supporters, kept on saying that they should've made Sugarfree Christmas parties before, and all to that effect, where you wouldn't have any idea that's this is coming to an end.

Not long before this sinks in, I saw from twitter that Bamboo called it quits. Well, it didn't strike me that much since I haven't heard from Bamboo, the band, through the airwaves.

Are they going solo? I don't know. But it's exciting to hear the sounds that these people could produce on their own. Rico Blanco's Your Universe is admittedly good. Ely Buendia's Wanted Bedspacer too has demonstrated progress, not only in the skills of the musician, but also to the whole local music scene. And songs from Ebe Dancel and Bamboo Manalac would be something to look forward to.

I hope they would still pursue doing music. Love and support for OPM!
