The second season of ‘Coke Studio Philippines’ premiered on ABS-CBN Sunday morning with IVOShanti as its first guests. Over the next several episodes, the show will feature performances from the following artists:
Quest
IV of Spades
Ben&Ben
December Avenue
Moira dela Torre
KZ Tandingan
Sam Concepcion
Khalil Ramos
Shanti Dope
AJ Rafael
Juan Miguel Severo
Patti Tiu
Kriesha Tiu
There will also be a mystery 14th artist and a holiday-themed episode to cap off the season.
‘Coke Studio Philippines’ initially aired a 10-episode series on TV5 last year. But the program moved to ABS-CBN this year due to TV5’s continuous emphasis into sports programming.
All episodes of ‘Coke Studio Philippines’ season 2 will be uploaded on its YouTube channel. Here is IVOShanti in the second season premiere.
TV5 is soldiering on with the help of blocktimers.
Over the next two days, three new programs will make their way into TV5’s lineup. They are:
Travel 360
A new travel show to be hosted by Kim Sarreal, Carla de Castro and Bien de la Paz, ‘Travel 360’ will highlight various places of interest while giving prospective travelers tips on how to enjoy one’s vacation to the fullest.
Bloggers TV
Hosted by Adele David, ‘Bloggers TV’ is a lifestyle program that is dedicated to the passion of blogging. It will take a look at the latest events and happenings that every blogger should love.
Both programs will be produced by Style International Company. The up-and-coming group is known for three things: event promotion, marketing and advertising.
Meanwhile, a third program will be a co-production of TV5 and Coca-Cola Philippines. ‘Coke Studio PH’ will feature live performances from some of the country’s up-and-coming and highly recognizable musicians.
Some of the confirmed performers on the show include Reese Lansangan, Jensen and the Flips, BP Valenzuela, Autotelic, Gracenote, Ransom Collective, Franco, Sandwich, Ebe Dancel, Noel Cabangon, Moonstar 88, Abra, Gabby Alipe, Raimund Marasigan, Curtismith and Buddy Zabala. ‘Coke Studio PH’ will also be streamed live on YouTube.
At this point, the short term is becoming apparent when it comes to TV5’s local fare. With the network still reeling from last year’s disaster, the best that they can do at this point is to hook up with blocktimers to produce quality content that should satisfy even the most hardcore of Kapatids.
With that, good luck to the three shows that will air on TV5 this weekend. It may be short and sweet, but the effort should be worth it.
