Earthday Jam: 14 Years of Sizzling Music Street Party for Mother Earth!

The heat is on, your blood’s pumping, your skin’s sweaty, and you’re just too weary from the temperature. It’s summer all right. But the weather’s crazy and something tells you global warming isn’t a joke. On April 25, 7:00pm at the 9th avenue cor 34th.Bonifacio Global City, is the return of one shabang , Earthday Jam. Still free to the public, audiences will sing along with over 100 musicians and artists who gather to perform for the only home we have in a 6-7 hour merry music making marathon.

Spearheaded by Lou Bonnevie (recipient of the Fr. Neri Satur award for Environmental Heroism given by the NCCA, UNESCO, Climate Institute and DepEd current Clean Air Champion) and her Earthday Jam Foundation. Supported by the Bonifacio Global City ,Department of Environment and Natural Resources with support from the City of Taguig , Earthday Jam 2014’s roster is a perky mix of young and veteran performers from jazz, folk to alternative, rock and hip hop. The concert starts with some explosive blues rockabilly from award winning group, Brat Pack which then segues to the swinging  PI JazzFest performer.  The pop set follows suit with catchy hits from Moonstar ’88 and GraceNote. The rock scene then headlines major ‘icons”— Slapshock, ChicoSci, Sandwich, Kjwan and Mayonnaise with “Earthday jam” veterans artist-producer-envi awardee herself, Lou Bonnevie and acoustic guru Noel Cabangon. Earthday jam can’t be complete without the reggae rastas from Brownman Revival. The much awaited showdown of rap and hip hop will be manifested from GLOC 9 and Abra. Also featured is newbie gothic rock group Philia but an array of surprise appearance from celebrity artist who will collaborate with some of the participating bands. Also at hand are speakers from environmental NGO organizations and volunteers from the civic society

You’re especially invited to drop by early and check out the recyclables’ Fair adjacent to the performance area. It’s easy to say “Save the Earth.” It’s another to actually do that, and that’s what this hot party’s all about! At the jam, your support by enlisting in any of the DENR’s activities and those of the other NGOs is just one of the causes for celebration. Better still, to bring out a placard to shout out your environmental sentiments. Make some noise and bring some good cheer. Party at the BGC , if you love Mother Earth as much as you should!
