Hale is a prominent Filipino rock band renowned for their melodic brand of rock music that perfectly intertwines with poetic lyrics, creating a distinct emotional resonance among their fan base. Formed in 2004 in Manila, Philippines, the group initially consisted of Champ Lui Pio (lead vocals and guitars), Sheldon Gellada (bass guitar and backing vocals), Roll Martinez (lead guitars and backing vocals), and Omnie Saroca (drums and backup vocals). They rose to fame with their self-titled debut album "Hale," released in 2005, which produced hits like "The Day You Said Goodnight," "Kung Wala Ka," and "Blue Sky," quickly propelling them into the spotlight in the Filipino music scene.
Throughout their career, Hale has skillfully crafted a discography that often reflects themes of love, loss, and reflection. Following their initial impact, albums like "Twilight" and "Above, Over and Beyond" solidified their status in the industry. After taking a brief hiatus in late 2010, Hale returned to the music scene with renewed vigor, releasing several more albums including "Time and Space" in 2015. Their subsequent releases such as "Alon" and "Simula Hanggang Huli," together with singles like "My Beating Heart" and "Kundiman," continue to showcase their maturity and growth as a band while staying true to their musical roots. Their ability to encapsulate the essence of Filipino sentimentality in their music has guaranteed them a lasting legacy in the OPM (Original Pilipino Music) industry.
