Maricar Riesgo headlines the “Untold Music” concert at the Music Hall tomorrow.
She started singing at 10 years old, joining contests and doing community performances. She later became a lounge singer in such places as Army & Navy Club, Manila Midtown Hotel, Holiday Inn and Philippine Columbian.
Maricar was 17 when she won as grand champion in the Rachel Alejandro Sing-Alike Competition. Then she went to Japan and fronted bands mostly composed of locals. In 2006, Maricar won in the Japan Karaoke Grand Prix, the only foreigner among the contestants.
After 10 years of stay abroad, Maricar comes home to release an album with the carrier single “Lumuluha.”
Her guest performers in the concert are Angelo Miguel, Gio Levy, Aikee Rapido, Cosmic Wall Band, Sta. Maria Band, Ritmo Band, and Mikhail John Saludo, with Pepita Curtis and Boobita as hosts.
