Get ready, Bay Area! Legendary Filipino rock band Rivermaya is set to ignite the San Jose Civic with their electrifying reunion concert on October 6th. Following the success of their monumental reunion show earlier this year, Rivermaya is hitting the road for a U.S. and Canada tour, bringing together their iconic lineup: Bamboo Mañalac, Rico Blanco, Mark Escueta, and Nathan Azarcon. Fans of ’90s OPM (Original Pilipino Music) are in for a treat as this powerhouse group, responsible for some of the most beloved anthems in Filipino rock history, takes the stage once again.
If you were lucky enough to catch of their past shows, you know that this concert is more than just a trip down memory lane—it’s a full-blown rock experience. Rivermaya’s classic hits like “214,” “Hinahanap-Hanap Kita,” “Elesi,” “Balisong,” and “Awit ng Kabataan” will bring waves of nostalgia to longtime fans, while new listeners will discover the magic that made them icons of the Filipino music scene. From 1994 to 1998, Mañalac, Blanco, Escueta, and Azarcon created three groundbreaking albums, cementing their status as rock legends, not only in the Philippines but all over the world.
Doors open at 6 PM, and the show starts at 7 PM. You can expect an energy-packed night with unforgettable performances, singalongs, and an epic setlist that celebrates the band’s unparalleled contributions to Filipino rock.
