DONA NOBIS PACEM Live is now available on all streaming platforms!
🙌💛🙌☮️☮️☮️
I wrote this song as a prayer for peace a few years ago and first released it in 2024 as part of my Listen to the Trees album, and as a remix later that year. In this recording, I had the honor of performing it live on the Spring Equinox with some amazing humans listed below. Dona Nobis Pacem means “Grant Us Peace” and comes from the Latin Mass. My prayer continues with this musical offering.
🙏☮️🙏
The beauty of releasing a live performance is that the humanness comes through in small ways, bringing you there into the realm of the moment it was created. I feel strongly that this is the magic of live music that will never go away. I am proud of this co-creation, especially what happened in the last moments bringing the English words “Grant Us Peace” into the piece.
Thanks to everyone who brought their magic. Full album drops on November 13th!
🙏💛🙏

🌊 ⛵️FPAC 2026: A FEW OF OUR FAVORITE MOMENTS ⛵️🌊

We're still not over it, and honestly? Neither should you be. 😌

From the main stage sets that had the whole park singing along, to the aunties who ran the mahjong table like it was their day job, to the kids leaving the Children's Pavilion more culturally fluent than some adults — this year's Balangay carried us further than we expected. 🇵🇭💛

Swipe through and relive it: the outfits, the performances, the dances, the artwork, the strangers who became instant kuyas and titas by 2PM. This is what happens when a whole community shows up arm in arm ❤️🇵🇭.

If you were there — you know. If you weren't — well, now you know what to expect next year- on Saturday,
9/11/26 👀

🪩 THE MANILA SOUND TENT IS BACK, BALANGAY! 🪩

You heard the disco ball calling — that's because the dancefloor is setting sail again at FPAC 2026. Manila Sound returns with the DJs, the grooves, and that unmistakable OPM-meets-everything-else sound that turns a tent into a full-blown vibe.

And this year, we're adding something new: Manila Sound presents MusiKalye Corner 🎶 — our reimagined busking corner, where street-level sound gets its own stage. No stage-diving into a crowd required — the music (and the dancefloor) finds you.

Swipe to see what DJs and performers will be keeping the balangay rocking all day long. 🕺💃

📅 September 12, 2026 from 10AM–6PM
📍 Point Fermin Park, San Pedro, CA
🎟️ RSVP for FREE: bit.ly/FPAC2026
