::: Click to see our FEBRUARY 2011 SKED ::: Evolving from that need to quantify life comes Vin Dancel, Simon Tan, Kakoy Legaspi, and Abe Billano, collectively known as Peryodiko.  Kakoy, Vin, Abe, Simon Photo by Dennis Dancel, MD Music Videos: Agawan Base, Bakasyon, Tayo Like the band’s namesake, Peryodiko takes upon itself to observe the things that come and go. It tasks itself with the witnessing of truths and communicating of lessons that can be learned from our experiences. The difference is Dancel, and company, infuses the written word of paper journals with the soul and feel that only good music can bring. Peryodiko is moving and melodic with the lightness of a touch that is as alternative as it is sensibly musical. Vin Dancel, lead vocalist and primary song writer, hails from the defunct Twisted Halo. Letting go of the angst of his former band, Dancel has morphed from being a maker of statements, to a teller of stories. He lends a gentler tone to profound messages and tales, with melodies reminiscent of U2, The Beatles, and Filipino greats like Joey Ayala, Apo Hiking Society, Yano, and The Eraserheads. And though these influences clearly mark their legacy in his compositions, Dancel definitively writes music that is uniquely his own. Lending articulation to Vin’s song writing prowess is respected jazz bassist, Simon Tan as the band’s musical director. Adding flare and flavor into the mix is the gutsy lead guitar of Kakoy Legaspi, previously a member of Rivermaya and later on, Barbie’s Cradle. Former drummer of Dong Abay, Abe Billano provides impeccable beat-keeping and youthful energy to this formidable rhythm section. Peryodiko is distinct. It derives its music from the things that mold us in our daily life. There is a fusion of intellect and good music at play with this group. The combination is then grounded to life, to which we can all relate. That is Peryodiko, in its conception and its reality. “I read the news today, oh boy.” -John Lennon Text from The Thirdline Inc.
