When talking about where the idea to conduct a regional tour instead of their annual music festival came from, September Fever co-organizer and Mandaue Nights’ artist Karl Lucente shared, “Last year’s September Fever was our first time to introduce and invite other local production heads from Visayas and Mindanao for a roundtable session. Representatives from various regions converged to discuss the opportunities and obstacles present within their unique musical landscapes. Through guided discussions, attendees identified common ground and potential areas for collaboration, which led towards the idea of a groundbreaking ‘Coast-to-Coast’.”
“We wanted to create a regional tour for artists, independent labels, and production teams to go beyond their small communities and share their music and stories across major cities in Visayas and Mindanao.”
Tickets for ‘C2C’ are priced at P400 and are now available via Filla Killa’s ticketing website here.
