Biography:
Taken by Cars is a Filipino indie band
that first started making waves in late 2006 when their underground demo
“A Weeknight Memoir (In High Definition)” attracted attention and hit
number one on a local rock radio station. Composed of Sarah Marco
(androgynous vox), Bryce Zialcita (wailing guitar), Siopao Chua (jagged
guitar), Benny Yap (driving bass), and Bryan Kong (hybrid drums), the
flagship act of local indie label Party Bear Records released their
debut album, “Endings of a New Kind,” under Warner Music distribution in
early 2008.
In less than a year, with 3 singles (“Uh Oh,”
“December 2 Chapter VII,” “Shapeshifter”) and a remix project (“Uh Oh
It’s Electro”) together with renowned DJ Funk Avy under their belts, the
band has taken the local music scene by storm at the forefront of the
new wave electro-rock movement. They have earned a respectable and
dedicated fanbase through relentless gigging and online promotions.
Taken
by Cars is currently busy writing songs for their sophomore effort
slated for release in late 2009.
