True Love Hospital Band - How It All Started!


How did we all end up together?

Back in 2016, I went with Jordi and Carles for a Jam Session at La Stazione in Yanping Road and performed "Take me to church".

And one night, Czahreena asked me to join them in our usual hang-out spot. Our neighborhood Spanish bar in Wuding Road called Malabar. Carles and Jordi is looking for a singer and they're not really sure if I'm up for it. But I immediately said yes. And they also found Rafael through the Spanish grapevine. 

Oh they are all Spanish lads and I'm the only Filipina in the band. 

Spanish-Filipino collaboration in China.

Familiar characters in the Philippine history haha!



But what's with the name right?

We are trying to come up with the band name after our rehearsal.

It was a rainy afternoon, in a cab and all of us are all being silly and crazy.. you know creative people..

And we passed this hospital in Yan'an Road and all these crazy stories are now made around it and tadah, the True Love Hospital Band is born haha!
