Laguna may be known for its famous waterfalls, hot springs, and hundreds of villas for summer outing from people residing outside the province, but it is actually a hub of talented musicians and has been home to bands since the early 1990s. It is the home of one of the Most Influential Bands in South East Asia, Typecast, hailing from Sta. Rosa, Laguna. Even our National Hero, Dr. Jose Rizal, was known to be a music lover and had written his own songs.
All we’re saying is Laguna has a vibrant and thriving music scene, and it is definitely worth checking out.
In no particular order, here are some of the bands you can start with once you decide to explore the music venues in town after that dip in one of the hot springs.
