ABOUT
Tapati is an imaginative artist involved in different areas of performing arts. Her primary visibility is in the world music scene; starting with her playing percussion and doing vocals with Joey Ayala's band Bagong Lumad for 8 years and counting. As a theatrical dancer embracing neo-ethnic dance, as an emerging singer-songwriter doing solo and collaborative performances (commercial jingles, indie film music scoring), as a theater and indie film actress, vocal coach, and therapist to renowned rock vocalists, to playing a larger role of spearheading and co-organizing arts and culture events in the country. With her powerful, spirited voice, music, and artistry, Tapati is a festival in herself, showing an alternative perspective of Philippine culture.
