Episode 020

Magandang Araw to all fellow filo supporters of The Chosen Dozen, we are about to explore once again the best up-and-coming and already-established Filipino musicians ACROSS THE GLOBE! Your lovely host STEPH takes you on a weekly journey around the world exploring new artists, and this week is no different so tap into Episode 20 for one of our best episodes yet!

This week Filipino-African-American self-taught vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, producer, and songwriter from Union City, California, Larrenwong is this week's #TheChosenOne with his latest single "Mama" making it into our playlist for a fourth week in a row!

Larrenwong has been repping the Filipino flag as of late having attended the PISTAHAN festivities in San Franciso last month with other Filipino creatives such as Kiana V, Ashley Mehta, and SAB! Coming from a mixed culture of Filipino and American, Larrenwong was exposed to a variety of influences growing up which would eventually shine through the music he makes today! We congratulate Larrenwong on being The Chosen One and we look forward to more releases in the very near future!

In other news, your host Steph will be introducing FOUR brand new songs into The Chosen Dozen playlist, from artists such as Psvlm (Iloilo, PH), Mcrel (Cebu, PH), YNISH (Manila, PH), and Maejoy (USA).

Also, SEVEN previous tracks have been kept in The Chosen Dozen for your listening pleasure including Chloe Adona (Atlanta, USA), Tiana Kocher (USA), Jason Dhakal (Manila, PH), H3rizon (Sydney, AUS), Ru AREYOU (USA), HIRIE (Hawaii), and Manila Grey (Canada).

We also have our Wild Cards plus a Bonus Track while we look back on a release way back in August of 2021 by Jersey City, New Jersey-based indie alternative pop artist, Andre Molina for our FLASHBACK TRACK segment with the song “Miami”. Plus our latest segment is called THE CHOSEN CLASSIC where we highlight a track that was a hit for us from way back, this time from Cagayan De Oro rooted now nationally successful soul pop singer, Arthur Nery, called “Life Puzzle” released in April of 2019.
