San Juan City, Philippines — April 16, 2026 — It was a night of nostalgia, artistry, and global ambition as Full Circle Creatives Corporation proudly supported and witnessed an electrifying live event at Teatrino Greenhills, headlined by iconic OPM band Orange & Lemons.
The evening marked the official live showcase of their latest single, “Too Young to Be Old, Too Old to Be Young,” a deeply reflective track that resonates with themes of transition, identity, and the complexities of growing through different stages of life. With their signature retro-pop sound and poetic lyricism, Orange & Lemons once again demonstrated their enduring relevance in today’s music landscape.
In an exciting announcement, the band revealed their upcoming European tour this May, a strategic step toward expanding their presence on the international stage. As part of their long-term vision, Orange & Lemons shared plans to pe*****te the global music market through the release of a full all-English album, designed to connect with a broader, non-Filipino audience while maintaining their distinct musical identity.
The European tour is set not only to introduce their music to new international listeners, but also to reconnect with Filipino communities across Europe, creating a powerful bridge between homegrown artistry and global audiences. This dual approach reflects the band’s commitment to both cultural representation and worldwide reach.
A standout moment of the evening was the special guest appearance of Valerie Pawid West, reigning Miss Global Philippines 2026, who graced the stage with both elegance and vocal artistry. In a heartfelt collaboration, Valerie joined Orange & Lemons for a live performance of “Heart of Ifugao,” a song that celebrates heritage, identity, and the enduring spirit of the Filipino people.
The performance was met with resounding applause, as Valerie’s soulful voice blended seamlessly with the band’s signature sound—creating a moving tribute to Ifugao culture and a defining highlight of the evening. The collaboration underscored the powerful intersection of music, pageantry, and cultural storytelling.
The event gathered music lovers, media, and industry leaders, all witnessing a night that not only celebrated a new release but also marked a bold step forward for Filipino music on the world stage.
Full Circle Creatives Corporation remains committed to championing Filipino excellence across music, pageantry, and global entertainment—bringing together visionary artists and platforms that elevate culture, creativity, and international impact.
