Ben&Ben and Smart to light up the skies on 'Invevitable' fashion this Sunday

02/28/2021 12:54:05 AM


Ben&Ben will end the month on a high note – by headlining a rare lights-and-sound event for the very first time.

Named as The Inevitable Drone Show, this upcoming festivity is set to showcase a music performance with drone lights show illuminating the Manila skyline in a synchronized fashion. By 7pm on Sunday (28 February 2021) everyone around Rizal Park and its nearby areas will get to witness this eco-friend and innovative show. The SMART 5G-presented show will also emanate live via  Ben&Ben’s official Facebook page.

As we witness the picturesque storytelling in the sky, expect the award-winning Filipino collective to perform an extended version of Inevitable—the acclaimed song that was used as a soundtrack and a music score for SMART 5G’s romantic sci-fi TVC featuring Korean drama superstars, Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin—as its accompaniment. 

For their part, Ben&Ben immediately said yes to participating in this initiative that explores the creative possibilities of aerial entertainment, easily becoming the first Filipino band to mount a drone show in collaboration with the country's biggest telecommunications service provider.
“The first and probably the most immediate reason why we accepted this project is because it merges different forms of art with technology to create a one-of-a-kind experience for our audience,” vocalist and guitarist Paolo Benjamin said in a statement. “Some of us have experienced drone shows before, but only set to pre-existing songs and records. The opportunity to actually score and record the music and live performance to one such show was something we could just not pass up on.”
Percussionist Andrew De Pano said the nine-piece outfit is also involved with the visual aspects of the drone show, and not just the music itself; making the entire thing a collaborative event with Smart. 
“The mere fact that it’s a drone show is definitely a first big difference. We also had to base our music performance solely on a storyboard, which was a new experience compared to the usual scoring of a commercial with more or less final video footage to reference off of. We hope that with the work we put into it, the audience experiences the story of our song Inevitable, set to a unique visual experience that even we are especially excited for.”
