Iñigo goes global

The young artist dives deeper into far-reaching opportunit­ies

-

Iñigo Pascual remains dead set on his global aspiration­s as his latest internatio­nal single “Catching Feelings,” featuring music producer Moophs, continues to conquer the global stage.

The summery Island Pop track boasts not only of having a catchy vibe and a cool tune, but also of securing radio airplay in the United States. The song was first heard on 92.7 The Rev FM which proved to be a proud moment for the talented Filipino performer, who eagerly shared a video of the historic moment on Instagram.

Iñigo also collaborat­ed with Filipino-American musicians Jeremy Passion and Gabe Bondoc in a remix of his newest song with their original songs “Lemonade” and “The One” exclusivel­y on MyxTV, which now has over 150,000 views.

During his trip in the US and Canada, the 21-year old singer-songwriter also shared the stage with urban reggae band Tribal Theory at the House of Blues in Anaheim, California. He also guested and performed on Good Morning, Hawaii.

As if all that weren’t impressive enough, American producer and former American Idol judge Randy Jackson, when asked what

he thought of “Catching Feelings,” also expressed approval for the song — even going as far as inviting Inigo to make a “trio record” with him and KZ Tandingan.

The rising internatio­nal artist also shared the stage with Samoan artist, Fia, on iHeartRadi­o Island 98.5 Hawaii, and has just come back from Toronto for one of his biggest crowds to date with Taste of Manila.

“Catching Feelings” is part of Inigo’s Options LP following the release of the titular lead single in June. The track, despite having a sunny sound, actually talks about the beauty of recognizin­g the familiar feeling of once again falling for another person, after a hurtful past relationsh­ip.

The single is under Tarsier Records, an undergroun­d music label which has been pushing for the breakthrou­gh of Filipino talents like Inigo to the internatio­nal music stage, in line with ABS-CBN’s mission to showcase the unique artistry of Filipinos to global audiences. Listen to “Catching Feelings” on all digital streaming platforms worldwide and watch the official lyric video on Tarsier Record’s YouTube channel.
