'LET GRAVITY' Brings Nostalgic "Feels" With New Beats

The wide variety of music maybe too much for us, as many strive to make new sounds, yet the band called LET GRAVITY came together to bring the old vibe with new original songs. The band was formed by seasoned musicians Sam, Donne, Rigil, Alden, and Ram who came from different bands came together and defied the norm to make their own unique sound. With each of the members an expert with their instruments/vocals, their talent has been honed by experience.

Members of LET GRAVITY ‘s musical paths have crossed some time ago, as school mates, ex-band mates, work colleagues, or through common friends.  Yet they have initially gone on separate journeys.   Guitarist Sam Santos, the band’s guitarist, is a professional songwriter who composed the teleserye theme song “Alipin”, and a host of other telenovela themes.  His brother, bassist Donne Santos, was the founding member of indie-band ‘Goodbye Tracy’, and is a former member of Ramchavesband-formerly Sutil.  Acoustic and electric fingerstyle guitarist, Rigil Borromeo and drummer Alden Acosta were UST schoolmates, ex-members of the band “happydaysahead”; the latter was also a former member of pop-rock outfit “Callalily”.  The newest member of the band is lead vocalist Ram Chaves, who once had his own band called ‘Ramchavesband’ and formerly a runner up in the GMA 7 Pinoy Idol season 1 competition.  

And with the formation of the band, they were able to create songs of their own along with doing their own covers of popular songs. Their debut album Defy is the perfect word to describe their music, a smooth jazzy feel which reflects the 90's to early 2000s musical style of songs which is loved by the public and became classics of that era.

"Defy" was also the carrier single for the album which charted on  OPM MYX and  Monster radio RX 93.1. They recently launched "With A Kiss" and their music video which is also shown on MYX music channel and Net 25. Another song "Alamat" is in the works for their next single release as it will also be the soundtrack of the upcoming movie Heremano Puli starring Aljur Abrenica, with directer Gil Portez to be shown in cinemas in September. All of their music video are available on their YouTube Channel.

Given their potential as a soulful band many of us love, we look forward that their songs will also take centerstage with collaborations for movie and TV. Also their passion to push for new music is also a good move for OPM to diversify despite the "cover"-saturated local music industry. 

LET GRAVITY’s new album entitled “Defy” is now available on Spotify, Amazon, Deezer and Itunes. CDS available soon in Odyssey Music Store nationwide. Digitally distributed by Star Music.  Follow Let Gravity on their social media accounts:  Facebook.com/LetGravity ;  Instagram and Twitter - @letgravity
