BIO

Formed in early 2003 under the name of Wetslipperz, the group wrote songs and did appearances in shows on live stage audiences and radio stations as five-member group. The first chapter in the band history lead to a DIY release self-titled EP. After a small line-up shift, Ian, Charleston, and Godfrey decided to slightly alter the direction of the band, developing a truer grunge sound with native taste of music. Finally, this change in ideology leads the band to move forward under the new name “Phylum”, and successfully engage audience with their unique choice of music that all generations can relate. Phylum is going strong as a five-member band bringing Visayan sound the most influential and relatable music to different ages. Despite a helping of bitter memories, some dreams that never found their way yet, heartbreaks, and other tearjerker whatchamacallits, they manage to lean on to the promise that music has this ability to change lives for the better. And so they began getting serious about penning songs and executing these in live musical performances to express a collage of emoticons that are as funny and witty, cruel and cunning, passionate and driven as their personalities. Phylum says it loud here to patrons, let the phylum pincers give you a clutch, as this is the music that will fasten you to the strong belief that amid the world backbreaking round of drudgery, doubt and misery, your dreams are just waiting to be realized.
