Rivermaya, dubbed 'Ang Banda ng Bayan' by its fans across the country, is set to play at an exclusive showcase of Asia's finest alongside Singapore's premier rock band Electrico on October 25, Tuesday at the Singapore Marriott's Bar None.

A record-breaking 3-time winner as FAVORITE GROUP of the MTV Pilipinas 2002/2003/2005 and MTV Asia 2005 Philippines' FAVORITE ARTIST, Rivermaya is a concert circuit favorite on its home turf, playing to crowds as huge as 75,000.

The band has had a non-stop string of massive hits including "You'll Be Safe Here" (which is now enjoying airplay in Singapore), "A Love to Share", "Sunday Driving", "Liwanag sa Dilim" and "Balisong."

Rivermaya's music is a magical mix of poetry, heart-thumping rhythms, and pure rock alchemy. The band is composed of Rico Blanco on vocals, Mike Elgar on guitar, Mark Escueta on drums and Japs Sergio on bass.

Electrico follows their nomination as Singapore's Favorite Artist at the MTV Asia Awards 2005 with the much-awaited release of their second album. Their music is a melodic brand of positively infectious rock n roll with huge pop hooks, a touch of class and lots of heart. With their hit singles like "I Want You" and "Runaway" being a staple on local radio, combined with their energetic, charismatic and inspired live show, Electrico is Singapore's biggest band and is continually winning more fans wherever they go. And there are no signs of stopping.
