Rising solo artist announces solo EP and local tour in August

MANILA, Philippines – P-pop group SB19’s Stell released his first solo single titled “Room” on Friday, June 14. He is the last of the members to launch a solo project.

Described as “funk-pop with hypnotic lyricism”, Stell said the song is a “manifesto to celebrate one’s authenticity”. It was produced and composed by SB19 producer RADKIDZ – the duo consisting of SB19 frontman PABLO and his brother JOSUE.

The music video for “Room” was also released on YouTube on Friday. It opens with Stell walking into a club and telling the floor manager – Filipino drag queen Tita Baby – that he wants to audition. The audition song itself is the coup de grace: Stell transforms into a burlesque star who overflows with sexuality, complete with his raw vocals, as he growls, “Can you read the room?”

The music video was directed by co-member Justin and 1Z Entertainment creative director Xi-Anne Avanceña.

During the media launch and showcase also held on June 14, Stell revealed that he had performed the choreographic rehearsal for the single the day after PAGTATAG! Final concert. His team then shot the music video in Quezon City the next day. He also thanked Jay Roncevaux who did the choreography.

Stell also shared that having the drag queen in her debut solo single is her way of shining a light on the LGBTQ+ community. “They deserve it, especially because it’s also Pride Month,” he added.

At the event, the rising solo artist also announced that he will be releasing a solo EP in August, under Warner Music Philippines. He added that a local tour for the EP is also planned.

Stell is scheduled to perform with pop singer Erik Santos on a tour of the United States and Canada beginning June 22, and perform a concert with singer and The Voice Generations co-coach Julie Ann San Jose. – Rappler.com
