The Pin Up Girls – Nilamon ng Gabi
Monday, February 25th, 2008The Pin-Up Girls was formed back in 1996 by Mondo Castro (vocals, guitar), Pamela Aquino (vocals, guitar) and Jeng Tan (vocals, bass). They eventually added guitarist Ryan Nachura and drummer Noel Garcia and began performing New Wave covers at local clubs. The band has often been tagged as the first Philippine band to have been signed up under a foreign recording label.
On July 2003, the Pin-Up Girls made their American debut with the critically acclaimed five-track EP Taste Test. The limited edition CD quickly sold out, and the dreamy ballad “Caress” hit No. 1 on NU-107 in the Philippines and on “Flashback Alternatives” in New Jersey.
