We Got returns after a successful debut single. 

This time around, the eight-piece reggae group made their rendition of an iconic song by Eraserheads.

The second single, titled “Ligaya”  captures the essence of the original while redressing its vibe with fuller, brighter elements and a tropical makeover. This cover was produced by the Eraserheads drummer himself, Raymund Marasigan, and it was recorded at the studios of Sunny Side Sound in Cubao, Quezon City.

Made more captivating with syncopated rhythms, groovy horns, and animated percussions, We Got’s version crests a euphoric wave of summer and nostalgia effortlessly without the need to go on an actual trip.


“At first, we were just jamming it for fun but then, it turned out pretty good,” says vocalist and guitarist Mack de la Cruz. “So, we decided to be serious about covering the song—putting our signature We Got flavor. And there it is, a unique ‘Ligaya’ rendition. We’re very happy about how it turned out!”

Meanwhile, Marasigan, who also has several projects such Sandwich, Assembly Generals, and Squid9, has nothing but praises on his working relationship with this collective. “Working with them is like going to a family excursion at the beach especially when they bring delicious home-cooked meals to pre-production and recording. And we worked on capturing that vibe.”
