Behind The Stage

4 episodes - English - Latest episode: about 4 years ago -

Far from being another feature about "movers n' shakers" behind the stage takes a more casual route in interviewing the people and personalities who "make it happen" for local Filipino music: the guys n' gals who take on the oft-thankless jobs for the sheer love of seeing musicians succeed at what they do best - from the roadies, the website moderators, the DJs, the managers and production organizers, musician/radio host Joey D offers a glimpse into what got these people started in what they do - and what keeps them going.

Which is why #BehindTheStagePH took the tim...
