Zia Quizon Releases Her Mini-CD Album

Posted by PinoyMusicChoice - ADMIN On Saturday, October 08, 2011

Her breezily uplifting blend of pop, soul, jazz and retro R&B is here to sway you away as Polyeast Records proudly announces the release of Zia Quizon self-titled mini-CD album.

Showcasing her talent as one of OPM’s young singer/songwriter could probably go beyond being a daughter of the Comedy King Dolphy and OPM’s Divine Diva ZsaZsa Padilla because Zia is here to prove that she’s is a breath of fresh air in her debut album.

Featuring her positioning single “Simple Girl” is notably one of her masterpieces since she started learning her craft. Zia said “I draw inspiration from everyday experiences or a particularly strong feeling that I have at the moment. I believe that songs become more meaningful when you’re feeling emotional and in a way come from a very real place. And when you finally finish a song, the most fulfilling feeling about the whole process when you take a step back and think, ‘That pretty much sums up how I felt at the time.’” She wrote the song “Simple Girl” and obviously mirrors a young simple girl she really is. The album’s first single is now being heard on the radio and will soon be accompanied by a music video.

This memorable six-track release full of feel good music includes three original composition and three revivals. Borrowing a song which led her mom, ZsaZsa Padilla, to the height of her career in the 80s, “Mambobola” is one of the album’s highlights. Zia said, “We were throwing some ideas around and I think I actually suggested the song myself. I felt that it would be very nice to have one of my mom’s songs on the album as a kind of tribute to her for all of the things she has done for me.”

Giving credits to her very supportive dad, Dolphy, a contemporary classic piece “Smile,” becomes a more-than-promising start for the young artist reviving Michael Jackson’s version. Sharing her musical influences, Zia said “Aside from my mom, I would say that my dad’s taste in music really shaped mine. He influenced me to appreciate the classics—from standards to classical to world Music and even oldies.”

Another remake in the album is the track “So Much In Love” which was originally by Sheena Easton brings out Zia’s melodic sensibilities mixing with much jazz with her carefree spirit.

Tapping into elements of soul, jazz and pop, Zia beautifully shapes these songs to become her step toward something – Zia’s simplicity and her artistic breakthrough — that has its own considerable rewards. Original compositions also include the perky “Dear Lonely” written by Kiko Salazar introducing different instrumental elements along the way. “Ako Na Lang”, on the other hand, is an original composition and produced by Mr. Jungee Marcelo. “I’m proud to say that all the songs in the album were arranged to my style of singing. My producers made sure I was comfortable with singing the songs in the album,” Zia added.

She also explains, “I think that each song has its own character—kind of like that different sides to me. So, each song gives you a different feel without losing the general flow of the album.” Zia really is a gifted singer whose soulful singing and beautiful personality shine through on this release. In this album, Zia showed herself to be capable as an artist and a creative songwriter as well. “I tried to put as much of my personality in the song choice and the music as I could. So it isn’t just an album to me, it’s a piece of me that I am offering to anyone who will listen. The album may not be different, but hopefully I am.”
Zia’s self-titled debut album is now available in stores near you released by Polyeast Records. To get to know more about Zia, please visit her website http://www.ziaquizon.com

Buy Zia’s mini-CD album (Php 200) at any Astroplus and Odyssey branches in Metro Manila.

Sam Concepcion Stars in the Year’s Biggest Musical ‘Peter Pan’

Posted by PinoyMusicChoice - ADMIN On Monday, September 19, 2011

STAGES and Repertory Philippines’ Peter Pan is undeniably the biggest musical of the year- an apt project for the celebration of its star Sam Concepcion’s 10th year in showbiz.

Peter Pan goes onstage at the Meralco Theater from September 30 to October 30.

Forever Young, the promo single for Peter Pan, entered the twitter trending charts (along with Sam) after the song was launched last Sunday at ASAP Rocks.

Peter Pan further cements Sam’s stature as the prime leading man of family musicals in the country having topbilled three hit productions The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe, High School Musical, and NOAH.

“Peter Pan is big in so many aspects. It can be said that this is the most expensive show I have been in,” says Sam. “I am very fortunate that this project has been entrusted to me.”

This production is also the first time that this version of Peter Pan, written by Stiles and Drewe and the late Willis Hall, will be staged in Asia. It relives Sir James Barrie’s timeless tale of the boy who never grew up.

“People can expect a lot of flying from Peter Pan,” says Sam. “It is a perfect show for the whole family.”

Aside from Sam, Peter Pan also stars Michael Williams as Hook, and ABS-CBN’s rising star Tippy Dos Santos (Idol, Shoutout) as Wendy with Cara Barredo as alternate. Jaime Del Mundo and Menchu Lauchengco-Yulo direct this production.

Undoubtedly, Sam is one of the most talented performers of this generation dabbling into acting for movies (Shake, Rattle and Roll 9, Cinco, Way Back Home), and TV series (Super Inggo, Walang Kapalit, I Love Betty La Fea and Good Vibes), performing (I’ll Find Your Heart 1 and 2, front act for Miley Cyrus and Taylor Swift), recording (Sam Concepcion, Pop Class), and hosting and performing for TV (ASAP Rocks, Shoutout).

“Everything I have learned in my endeavors from the last decade, you will see when you watch Peter Pan,” enthuses Sam.

“This is one unforgettable show, so I hope everyone will catch this fun, fun show.”

Peter Pan goes onstage starting September 30- October 30 at the Meralco Theater. For tickets, call Ticketworld at 891-9999.

Jay-R and beauty queen Krista Kleiner are the newest members of the growing STAGES family.

The two were formally launched as STAGES artists in a press conference held last September 16, Thaipan Restaurant, Quezon City.

JayR and Krista join Christian Bautista, Karylle, Sam Concepcion, Enrique Gil, Zia Quizon, among others in the stable of stars of STAGES, headed by Carlo Orosa.

“Aside from being a respectable company, I believe that STAGES has this vision for me and my music,” says JayR. “With their experience as a management company, I believe they are knowledgeable enough to market me, as a singer, and my music.”

JayR adds that with this new partnership, he hopes to take his music into new levels and territories.

He is currently seen in two GMA 7 shows Protégé and Party Pilipinas. Soon, he will have an international tour for Universal Records, his music label.

On the other hand, Krista will be launched as an ultimate performer. This former beauty queen, after all, sings, dances, acts, and hosts. She is set to release her new album, produced by real life sweetheart JayR.

“I expect STAGES to help further and develop my career,” declares Krista. “Their (STAGES) trust, understanding, support and guidance will help me become a better artist, and will give me opportunities to show it.”

Head of STAGES Talent Group Carlo Orosa expressed that he is impressed by the artistry of JayR as a music person and Krista’s love and dedication for performing.

“To partner with both JayR and Krista, who are both very talented, is a great honor and privilege for our humble agency, “ says Carlo. “STAGES is proud to have them in our stable of stars.”

Not everybody knows that JayR is the star of STAGES’ very first musical production Footloose, so this partnership is sort of a homecoming for the Prince of Soul also.
